KATHMANDU: Enterovirus infection has been discovered to be more frequent in Nepalese eye disease (viral conjunctivitis).
According to Krishna Prasad Jaisi, the laboratory’s information officer, 80 percent of the ten samples analyzed at the National Public Health Laboratory were found to be infected with Enterovirus.
Samples were collected from Patan Institute of Health Sciences.
Adenovirus was discovered in the laboratory’s prior sample test. Similarly, the laboratory has asked hospitals in all seven states to collect and deliver samples of the eye illness virus.
According to Jaisi, the laboratory has directed Netra Jyoti Sangh to collect and transmit 150 samples from each state.
Red and itchy eyes, wet or watery eyes, redness of the eyelids, swelling, pain in the eyes, and difficulty seeing in the sun or strong light are all symptoms of conjunctivitis.
If you have viral conjunctivitis, do not contact your eyes at random; if you must, thoroughly wash your hands with soapy water.
Similarly, when going out in the sun, you should take care of your eyes, such as using dark glasses, not allowing other people to use items that have been used by infected people.
