Sometimes you learn a lot about a patient through their eyes....🫣

In all seriousness though, unfortunately sexually transmitted infections (STIs) can cause eye symptoms, including HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes simplex virus, and hepatitis virus. STIs can cause eye infections when infected bodily fluids are transferred from the genitals to the eyes by touching the face or eyes.

Here are a few tips to help prevent eye complications from STIs:
🛡️ Practice protected sex
🧼 Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching or rubbing your eyes unless your hands are clean
🚫 Don't share eye makeup or cosmetics
🗑️ Throw away eye makeup after an infection
👁️ Use a separate towel for each eye if only one eye is infected

Most importantly, if you believe you have an eye infection, whether STI-related or not, don't wait to seek care. Prompt treatment by a qualified eye care professional is crucial to ensuring that an infection doesn't turn into something worse!
