#10 Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Sexually transmitted diseases are a little bit like Lyme disease in that they’re impacting a lot of people right now who don’t even know they have them. People are walking around with STDs and suffering because of them without realizing it.
Many STDs can affect the different layers of the eyes. These STDs include:
- Herpes
- Chlamydia
- Gonorrhea
- Syphilis
HIV
Some people are shocked to learn that they may have an STD during an eye exam. But it helps explain many of the other health problems they’ve been dealing with without knowing why.
