Can conjunctivitis (pink eye) be treated online in Europe? Conjunctivitis treatment online explained under EU telemedicine and ophthalmology safety standards.

Conjunctivitis (pink eye) is inflammation of the conjunctiva caused by viral infection, bacterial infection, or allergy. Symptoms may include red eye, discharge, itching, tearing, and mild swelling. This episode explains how conjunctivitis is assessed remotely and when prescription treatment may be appropriate.

You will learn:

• The difference between viral, bacterial, and allergic conjunctivitis

• How a doctor evaluates discharge type, symptom duration, contact lens use, and vision changes

• When antibiotic eye drops may be considered and when they are not indicated

• Hygiene measures to reduce transmission

• When a prescription request may be declined due to diagnostic uncertainty

• When urgent in-person evaluation is required (severe eye pain, light sensitivity, reduced vision, suspected keratitis, eye trauma)

All conjunctivitis treatment requests through Mobi Doctor require individual medical evaluation and compliance with EU regulatory standards. Not all red eyes are suitable for remote management.

This episode is educational and does not replace urgent or emergency eye care.
