Avoid crowded places and swimming during epidemics of conjunctivitis.

Avoid Wind and Dust – If you get caught in a dust storm, get inside and rinse your eyes immediately. Debris in the eye can lead to various infections and can irritate the eye in general, so use eye protection like glasses when exposed to wind or dust.
