Trachoma is a common eye disease. In the past, it used to be an epidemic in China. However, with the improvement of the country's economic conditions and the sanitation environment, the incidence of trachoma has decreased. Currently, it mostly occurs sporadically.

Nowadays, the clinical symptoms and signs of trachoma patients are not typical, and severe complications such as eyelid scarring are rarely seen. Generally, patients only experience discomfort and a foreign - body sensation in the eyes. The upper eyelid conjunctiva only shows mild congestion, and only a small number of patients have papillary and follicular hyperplasia.

Generally speaking, we should pay more attention to prevention. We need to pay attention to eye hygiene, avoid eye fatigue, and keep our eyes clean.

If someone gets infected, relevant medications can be used for control. For example, local and systemic application of levofloxacin or azithromycin in combination can effectively control the disease.
