C/S – CONJECTIVAL SWAB FOR C/S
The conjunctival swab test serves as a crucial tool in identifying conjunctivitis, commonly referred to as pink eye—an inflammation affecting the delicate tissue between the eye’s white area and the inner eyelid. This condition arises from various causes, including bacterial or viral infections, allergies, or prolonged use of contact lenses. Bacterial-induced conjunctivitis is notably prevalent among children and older adults. Although infections from bacteria or viruses can be contagious, timely treatment can effectively manage the condition, preventing severe consequences. Observable symptoms include excessive tearing, the development of thick yellow discharge that crusts around the eyes, particularly noticeable after periods of rest, and sensations of itchiness and burning in the eyes. Timely diagnosis and appropriate care play a pivotal role in alleviating the discomfort associated with this common eye affliction.
