It is a highly contagious infection that is spread by eye secretions. Symptoms include redness, itchiness, and discharge or crusting around the eye. A stye is a bump on the eyelid, which is also a common eye condition. Keratitis is the inflammation of the cornea that occurs due to frequent use of contact lenses, injury, diabetes, or surgery.
