Inflammation of the conjunctiva (the thin transparent covering of the cornea),  the outer covering of the eye, is commonly referred to as ‘eye lifting’. Conjunctivitis is mainly more common in younger people. And from them, the disease spreads to the eyes of others. Lately, children’s eye diseases are being seen on a large scale.
