Monsoon’s humidity creates a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses, increasing eye infection risk. Here’s a tip to avoid them.
Wash hands regularly and avoid touching or rubbing your eyes to prevent bacteria and virus transfer.
Maintain good hygiene
Always rinse face and eyes with clean, filtered, or boiled water. Avoid rain or tap water.
Use clean water
If eyes get wet in the rain, gently pat dry with a clean, soft towel. Never reuse dirty clothes.
Keep eyes dry
Use sunglasses or protective glasses while outdoors to shield your eyes from raindrops, dust, and pollutants.
Wear protective eyewear
Clean your lenses properly with solution and never rinse with tap water to prevent infection.

Never share towels, handkerchiefs, makeup, or eye products to avoid eye infections.
Avoid sharing personal items
