- Eye Infection
Eye infections can cause redness, irritation, watering, discharge, pain, and blurred vision. While many common eye infections can be managed with appropriate medication and supportive care, severe or deep infections may require specialised ophthalmic procedures to control the infection and protect vision. At Pristine Eye Clinic, our experienced eye specialists carefully evaluate the cause and severity of the infection before recommending a personalised treatment plan. For serious infections affecting the inside of the eye, advanced treatments such as intravitreal medication or vitrectomy may be considered when clinically appropriate.

Why Timely Eye Infection Treatment Matters

What is an Eye Infection?
An eye infection occurs when microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi affect the eye or surrounding tissues. While many common eye infections can be treated with medicines and supportive care, some severe infections can affect the cornea or the inside of the eye and may require specialised ophthalmic treatment or procedures. Early diagnosis is important to control the infection and help protect vision.
Common Symptoms of Eye Infection
You may have an eye infection if you experience:
- Redness or inflammation of the eye
- Eye pain or persistent discomfort
- Excessive watering or discharge
- Swelling of the eyelids
- Blurred or reduced vision
- Increased sensitivity to light
- Burning, itching, or irritation
- Feeling of something stuck in the eye
- Floaters or sudden changes in vision
Severe pain, rapidly worsening vision, marked redness, or significant light sensitivity require prompt evaluation by an eye specialist, as these symptoms can occur with serious infections affecting deeper parts of the eye.
Why Early Diagnosis Matters
Types of Eye Infections Requiring Specialist Treatment
Eye infections can affect different parts of the eye and vary in severity. While many infections respond to medication, some may require specialised ophthalmic treatment or procedures.
- Infectious Keratitis – An infection of the cornea that can cause pain, redness, light sensitivity, and blurred vision and requires prompt specialist treatment.
- Corneal Ulcer – An open sore on the cornea, often associated with infection, that may require intensive medical treatment and close monitoring.
- Severe Conjunctivitis – Certain severe or persistent bacterial infections may require specialist evaluation and targeted treatment.
- Endophthalmitis – A serious infection inside the eye that is a medical emergency and may require intravitreal medication or other specialised procedures.
- Intraocular Infections – Infections affecting the deeper structures of the eye may require advanced ophthalmic management to control the infection and protect vision.
Management of Corneal Infections & Corneal Ulcers
Corneal infections and ulcers are serious eye conditions that require prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent permanent vision loss. Management includes detailed clinical evaluation, microbiological investigations where required, intensive medical therapy, preparation of concentrated antibiotic drop & therapeutic cornea transplant to remove the infection and surgical intervention when necessary to preserve the cornea and restore eye health.
Benefits include:
- Early diagnosis and targeted treatment
- Prevents progression of infection and corneal damage
- Reduces the risk of corneal scarring and perforation
- Preserves vision through timely intervention
- Comprehensive medical and surgical management for complex cases
Amniotic Membrane Transplantation (AMT)
Amniotic Membrane Transplantation (AMT) is a reconstructive procedure that uses a specially processed amniotic membrane to promote healing of the ocular surface. It is commonly performed for persistent corneal ulcers, chemical injuries, ocular surface inflammation, and non-healing epithelial defects.
Benefits include:
- Promotes faster healing of the ocular surface
- Reduces inflammation and scarring
- Relieves pain and discomfort
- Supports regeneration of damaged tissue
- Helps preserve the ocular surface in severe eye conditions
Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplantation (SLET)
Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplantation (SLET) is an advanced procedure used to treat Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency (LSCD). Healthy limbal stem cells from the patient’s unaffected eye are transplanted to regenerate the damaged corneal surface and restore its function.
Benefits include:
- Restores a healthy corneal surface
- Promotes regeneration of limbal stem cells
- Improves corneal clarity and vision
- Effective treatment for unilateral limbal stem cell deficiency
- Reduces the risk of long-term ocular surface complications
Mucous Membrane Grafting
Mucous Membrane Grafting is a reconstructive procedure used for patients with severe ocular surface disorders, chemical burns, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, or cicatricial eye diseases. Healthy mucosal tissue, usually taken from the inside of the mouth, is transplanted to reconstruct damaged eyelid or ocular surface tissues.
Benefits include:
- Restores damaged ocular surface tissue
- Improves eyelid function and ocular surface stability
- Reduces chronic irritation and inflammation
- Helps protect the cornea from further damage
- Enhances long-term comfort and supports visual rehabilitation
