  • Do not rub eyes.
  • Frequently wash your hands.
  • Frequently change towels and dish cloths
  • Do not share face towels with others
  • Frequently change your pillowcase.
  • Throw away eye cosmetics.
  • Don't use other people’s eye cosmetics.
  • Follow a strict hygiene regime if you wear contact lenses.
  • Children with conjunctivitis should avoid contact with other children.
