Overview
Common causes of conjunctivitis include bacteria, viruses, and environmental factors.[1] Viral conjunctivitis is the most common cause of infectious conjunctivitis both overall and in the adult population. Bacterial conjunctivitis is the second most common cause and is responsible for the majority of cases in children. Allergic conjunctivitis is the most frequent cause, affecting 15% to 40% of the population. Noninfectious conjunctivitis includes keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye syndrome) and superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis may cause by inflammation secondary to immune-mediated diseases or mechanical irritation.[2]
Causes
Viral conjunctivitis
- Adenovirus (most common)
- Herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and 2
- Varicella zoster virus
- Picornaviruses (Coxsackievirus A24 and Enterovirus 70)
- Molluscum contagiosum
- Rubella virus
- Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)
Bacterial conjunctivitis[3]
- Gram-positive bacteria
- Staphylococcus aureus
- Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (common in nursing homes)
- Streptococcus pneumoniae
- Gram-negative bacteria
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Serratia marcescens
- Haemophilus influenzae (most common pathogen in children)
- Moraxella catarrhalis
- Chlamydia trachomatis (sexually transmitted bacteria)
- Neisseria gonorrhoeae (sexually transmitted bacteria)
- Septic
- Chlamydia trachomatis
- Neisseria gonorrhoeae
- Herpes simplex virus
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa (non–sexually transmitted bacteria)
- Staphylococcus aureus (non–sexually transmitted bacteria)
- Aseptic
- Chemical (silver nitrate solution)
Allergic conjunctivitis
- Allergens (pollen, animal dander, dust mites, or molds)
Keratoconjunctivitis[6]
- Lacrimal gland dysfunction (Sjögren's syndrome) with reduced tear production
- Reflex hyposecretion
- Mucin deficiency
- Low blink rate
- Mechanical trauma
- Vitamin A deficiency
- Autoimmune diseases
- Unknown etiology
