THE WAYS OF TRANSMISSION OF THE VIRUS
Corona viruses are a large family of viruses that cause colds, diseases such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. This type of virus is spread through breathing or contact. We know that this type of virus likes humid environments. The virus travels to the lungs through the mouth, nose and eyes.
.
ROAD TO LUNG
After contact with the infected area, surface or person, we get the virus when we touch our mouth, nose or eyes without washing our hands with plenty of water and soap for at least 20 seconds. The main reason the corona virus is introduced through the eye is because we touch our eyes with our dirty hands.
Dirty hands should not touch the eyes and face. From our tear duct, our tears flow down our throat. In this way, we get the virus into our throat and mucous membranes into our lungs.

LIKE THE LIKE
We can’t tell specifically if the corona virus is in contact with our eyes, “said Yeşilbalkan, who said: “it creates a general state of conjunctivity. Blood, Burr, stinging, burning sensation occurs, and these symptoms can also be seen in many things. It can be a simple allergic symptom, a bacterial infection, a viral, cold microbe, these symptoms can also be seen. For this reason, it does not have a very distinctive symptom,” he said.

CONTACT LENS WARNING
In this process, indicating that you need to focus away from the Contact Lens our Dr. continued:
We must take our main general precautions to protect against the virus. We should take precautions such as keeping our distance, washing our hands, not touching them, and not bring our hands to our eyes, mouth, nose. He’s got protective glasses, business glasses. In addition, we can use wide-rimmed glasses to protect our eyes.
Be sure to use sunglasses when going out. Wide sunglasses also prevent our hands from going to our eyes. Sunglasses are a barrier. He can comfort us with that. During this period, let’s use sunglasses, but avoid contact lenses. Because it increases hand contact.
Turkey Medicals explains “our patients often say,’ let’s contact our eyes with soapy water while washing our hands and faces?’ they ask. We certainly don’t recommend it. It can have toxic effects on the surface of the eye. We’re not letting him in. We do not think that there is a special corona virus-protective drop on the drop,” was said.
