Prevent conjunctivitis by taking nutritional supplements and using hand sanitizer.

Until last year, I suffered from frequent bouts of conjunctivitis, which left my eyes red, itchy, and swollen, causing immense discomfort. So, I researched information about conjunctivitis and made it a habit to take nutritional supplements and use hand sanitizer regularly to prevent it. This year, I haven't had a case of conjunctivitis yet, so I think my efforts to prevent it have been effective.

Conjunctivitis is really difficult and uncomfortable, with foreign body sensation, eye discharge, itching, bloodshot eyes, etc. However, I became aware of the problem because I got conjunctivitis so often, and in order to prevent it, I first looked into the causes of conjunctivitis. It is said that conjunctivitis is caused by infection with various pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and it can also be caused by allergies to external substances. In my case, I don't think I have a specific allergy to conjunctivitis, and if it is due to bacterial infection, I thought it could be a problem with daily life habits and hygiene. Ultimately, I concluded that the unconscious act of rubbing your eyes after touching something and having germs on your hands seems to lead to conjunctivitis.

So, to prevent conjunctivitis, I made it a habit to avoid touching my eyes with my hands as much as possible. Still, sometimes people touch their eyes unconsciously, or when trying to remove eye boogers. Even in those cases, I always paid close attention to hand hygiene to prevent bacteria from infecting my eyes. I washed my hands frequently and used hand sanitizer regularly to prevent conjunctivitis, ensuring my hands were free of germs.

And to enhance the conjunctivitis prevention effect, I also took eye-healthy supplements. I heard that omega-3s are effective in preventing and alleviating conjunctivitis by reducing dryness and inflammation in the eyes, so I continued taking them for several months.

To prevent conjunctivitis, I improved my lifestyle habits for several months, including using hand sanitizer frequently and avoiding touching my eyes with my hands. I also took nutritional supplements. This year, I haven't had a single case of conjunctivitis. I plan to continue these lifestyle habits to prevent conjunctivitis in the future.
