The white part of the eye is not red. It's more like they have red eye shadow on the outside of their eyes.' But the American Academy of Ophthalmology sent an alert on Sunday about reports that the virus can cause conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the membrane that lines the eyelid. Earnest said patients at Life Care Center often would go from having no other symptoms but red eyes to dying. 'We've had patients that just had the red eyes as the only symptom that we saw and go to the hospital and pass away,' she told CNN. [/QUOTE]
