Eye discharge, also known as eye mucus or rheum, is a secretion that can accumulate in the corners of the eyes or along the eyelash line. This discharge can be clear, watery, yellow, green, or white, depending on the underlying cause, and may be accompanied by other symptoms such as redness, irritation, or blurred vision. Common causes of eye discharge include bacterial or viral conjunctivitis (pink eye), where infection leads to the production of pus or mucus. Allergies to pollen, dust, or pet dander can also cause watery discharge due to inflammation and tearing. Other potential causes include blepharitis, which involves inflammation of the eyelid margins, and dry eye syndrome, where inadequate tear production or poor-quality tears lead to mucus buildup. Additionally, a blocked tear duct can prevent proper drainage of tears, causing overflow and discharge. Contact lens wear, especially if not cleaned properly or worn for extended periods, can also result in discharge due to irritation or infection.
Treatment for eye discharge depends on the underlying cause. For bacterial conjunctivitis, antibiotic eye drops or ointments are typically prescribed to clear the infection. Viral conjunctivitis usually resolves on its own, but cold compresses and lubricating eye drops can provide symptom relief. Allergic conjunctivitis may be treated with antihistamine or anti-inflammatory eye drops to reduce symptoms. Maintaining proper eyelid hygiene, using warm compresses, and gently cleaning the eyelids can help manage blepharitis. For persistent or severe symptoms, or if the discharge is accompanied by pain or vision changes, it is important to consult an eye care professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
