INFECTIONS OF THE VISUAL ORGAN AND THEIR TREATMENT METHODS
Keywords:
eye infections, conjunctivitis, keratitis, blepharitis, antibiotics, antiviral therapy, antifungal agents, diagnosis.Abstract
This article examines infectious diseases of the visual organ, their etiology,
clinical symptoms, diagnostic methods, and modern treatment approaches. Eye
infections are most often caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. The article
analyzes common infections such as conjunctivitis, keratitis, and blepharitis, as well as
the treatments applied for their diagnosis and management.
