Regularly wash your hands: Our hands are constantly in contact with various surfaces at home and in public. By doing this, we make it simpler for illnesses to enter our systems. Wash your hands frequently, especially before eating.

Never touch your eyes without reason: Never contact your eyes without reason. Throughout the day, be careful not to touch your face without a reason.

Use artificial tears: Using artificial tears can help prevent dry eyes and other eye problems.

If you have conjunctivitis, wear dark glasses, stay out of the water, keep your distance from people, and don't touch your eyes. Children should stay out of school for a few days to prevent the illness from spreading to other students.
