SINGAPORE: Two students have contracted an eye infection known as 'keratoconjunctivitis' after playing in an international rugby tournament last month.
The Ministry of Health said one is a 10-year-old Singaporean. The other is a 12-year-old Malaysian.
About 150 students developed symptoms of the infection which include eye pain, redness or blurry vision.
It is suspected that the infection is caused by microsporidia, a singapore forming unicellular parasite, found in soil, when m&d enters the eye during sporting activities in muddy fields.
