So as some of you may know(if not, see happy), I have a really bad eye infection. My doctor gave me ways of preventing this... this is some stuff he told me...
Different bacteria will come onto your eye area, and since the cornea has no blood flow, the human body cannot protect itself, and the bacteria will basically piss all over your eye.
-Do not swap mascaras with friends.
-Wash your face, or at least eye area every night, with an antibacterial soap.
It will kill any creepy crawlies chillin by your eye. But try not to use a washcloth, as bacteria are sometimes hiding in it, especially if it's wet.
