A member asked:
Help please! is chlamydial conjunctivitis treated the same as genital chlamydia infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Oral antibiotics, such as doxycycline, are often used. Eye drops are not effective for this disorder. Treating the genital infection will also treat the eye infection.
