That\u2019s why it is known as a <\/span><b>contagious eye infection<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

It forms due to infection in the oil glands. It\u2019s not very serious, but it can be uncomfortable. Sometimes people keep touching it again and again, which only makes it worse.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Keratitis\"><\/span><b>3. Keratitis<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This involves the cornea of the eye. The cornea is the transparent thin covering on the front of the eye. Contact lens overwear or infection can lead to this. Symptoms include pain, redness, and blurred vision.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Blepharitis\"><\/span><b>4.

It can lead to itchy, sore, or flaky skin around the eyelashes.

Dacryocystitis<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This infection occurs in the tear duct (a long canal that runs from the corner of the eye to the nose).
