Conjunctivitis

Abstract

The conjunctiva is a thin, transparent mucous membrane, which lines the inner surface of the eyelids and covers the sclera (the white part of the eye). The conjunctiva contains glands which produce secretions that help to keep the eyes moist, and antibodies, which reduce infection.
