Mild trachoma can be treated with medication. During the day, use eye drops, and apply antibiotic eye ointment before bedtime, which tends to yield better results. In addition, taking oral antibiotics alongside topical eye medications can also be highly effective. It is also important to watch for complications and sequelae. During this period, avoid smoking and alcohol, and refrain from consuming stimulating or spicy foods to prevent worsening of the condition.
