Purulent discharge from the eyes is an eye symptom characterized by the presence of pus or other thick, yellowish-green fluid. It usually appears as a thick, sticky discharge from the eyes and may be accompanied by redness, irritation, and a feeling of grittiness. This symptom develops gradually and is caused by a bacterial infection, usually caused by the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. It can manifest as a single episode or be recurrent, and is often accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, headache, and swollen lymph nodes. Treatment typically involves antibiotics, warm compresses, and artificial tears.
