Reply To: Can chlamydia cause an eye infection?

Not strange at all. Chlamydia can infect the eye, usually through contact with infected genital fluids, and it can look like an ordinary stubborn conjunctivitis that does not respond to the usual drops.

Mention the exposure explicitly when you go in. If nobody knows to look for it, it gets treated as a routine eye infection and does not clear.
