Feline conjunctivitis is inflammation of the conjunctiva, the membrane over the eye surface. Common signs: 1. Red, swollen eyes with visible congestion. 2. Excess tearing or yellow-green discharge at the corners.
3. Itching and pain, so the cat rubs its eyes. 4. Light sensitivity. 5. Discharge that may stick to surrounding fur. 6. General inflammation with swelling, redness, and pain.
If these signs appear, consult a vet promptly for diagnosis and treatment such as eye drops or ointment. Early treatment aids recovery and reduces complications.
