Is Pink Eye a Dangerous sign at children?
13 October, 2023
Pink eye (conjunctivitis) is one of the most common eye problems, especially in children. Red eyes have many causes, such as the body’s reaction to irritants in the eyes or due to a highly contagious virus, bacteria, or allergy; it is potentially dangerous at different levels causing severe consequences.

Conjunctivitis is one of the most common eye problems, especially in children.
👩⚕️ So, in cases of red eyes that only last for a few hours, parents can thoroughly monitor and follow the instructions above to avoid infection from occurring in their children’s eyes. When pink eye does not go away on its own after 1-2 days, parents should take the baby to the doctor as soon as possible, especially when the pink-eye condition is more severe, accompanied by rust, fear of light, and itching.
If your kids have any eye problems, our well-trained ophthalmologists at Prima Medical Center Saigon will help your beloved choose the optimal treatment solution.
