Excessive eye discharge and blurred vision typically indicate ocular inflammation, such as keratitis. In keratitis, a brush-like, dark-red conjunctival congestion is commonly observed around the cornea (the “black part” of the eye). Keratitis is generally classified into bacterial and viral forms: bacterial infections typically produce thick, viscous discharge, whereas viral infections often yield filamentous (stringy) discharge. Watery discharge is usually associated with allergic reactions.
