Overview

Conjunctivitis may be classified based on the duration of symptoms into hyperacute, acute, and chronic.[1][2] Additionally, based on the causality of the inflammation and age group, conjunctivitis may be classified into infective conjunctivitis (bacterial and viral), neonatal conjunctivitis (ophthalmia neonatorum), allergic conjunctivitis, Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye syndrome), and superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.[3][4]

Classification

Based on the duration of symptoms, conjunctivitis may be classified into hyperacute, acute (less than 3 weeks), and chronic (greater than 3 weeks).

According to the etiology or age group, conjunctivitis may be classified into:Invalid parameter in <ref> tag[5]Invalid parameter in <ref> tag[6][7] [8]
