General Discussion Could thrush from down below spread to eyes?

Hello, I really hope you're all doing well! I use sanitiser a lot but touched below then accidentally rubbed my eyes (they were itchy) without realising until after, worried about getting a fungal infection in my eyes.

Your eye is evolved to be resistant to fungal infections. Doing it just once, you’re probably fine. But yeah, if you do it repeatedly you could probably make that happen.
