An Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven research and Biomarker study by a city-based private eye hospital has revealed that those with low Vitamin D and allergies are the ones who are getting severely affected by conjunctivitis.
A study of tears from 335 conjunctivitis patients that was done at Narayana Nethralaya’s GROW (Genes Repair and Regeneration in Ophthalmic Workstation) Lab has shown that over 60% of the 220 patients who had a severe infection had low Vitamin D levels. Along with this, nearly 50% of them had systemic allergies and/or asthama.
