Abstract

 Background: Conjunctivitis is the inflammation of the conjunctiva and has 4 main causes-viruses, bacteria, allergens, and irritants. Among these, bacterial conjunctivitis is most common and is contagious, especially when the dentist is working with the infected person, and that person spreads the same to the other patient.Methods: A pretested questionnaire survey was conducted among 152 subjects (those who were present at the time of survey) aged 18 to 60 years of Udaipur city, Rajasthan in March 2012. Ethical clearance was obtained from relevant authority. Written informed consent was obtained from study participants.Results: All (80 DENTISTS and 72 DENTAL AUXILIARIES) the subjects returned the questionnaire. Regarding previous experience of EYE FLU, 67 (44.08%) participants reported that they had been infected with EYE FLU previously. Majority 123 (80.92%) of participants agreed that virus or bacteria caused EYE FLU. Majority of 145 (95.39%) of the participants agreed that the eye turns red during EYE FLU. One hundred and twenty three (80.92%) subjects replied that the dental treatment for a patient infected with EYE FLU should be delayed till the symptoms subside.Conclusions: EYE FLU being an occupational hazard among DENTISTS, personal ophthalmic prophylactic care is a must which helps in prevention of spread of INFECTION to other patients and family members.
