BODY SIGNAL ALERT EYE PAIN WITH REDNESS: TREATMENT
Author: admin
Diagnosis and treatment of the inflammation of a particular part o the eye will depend on a number of factors, ranging from how long you’ve had the pain to other diseases—such as rheumatoid arthritis—that may be present.
However, no matter what part of the eye is inflamed, your doctor will probably prescribe eye drops or an ointment that contains a corticosteroid such as prednisone for you to use for a few days. This will help reduce the inflammation. Cold compresses can help reduce the redness. If you have choroiditis, the medication will be injected near your eye since the choroid is at the back of the eye. Your doctor may recommend aspirin or a prescription painkiller if the pain is particularly severe. I you wear contact lenses, check with your physician to see if you can wear them during the infection; if he’s like me, he’ll turn thumbs down on the idea, since contacts usually aggravate the infection. Disregard your vanity and wear your glasses until the infection clears up totally.
The good news is that any inflammation of one or more parts of the eye will not permanently impair your vision, and it’s easy to treat. One you begin treatment, the inflammation should begin to clear up within a few days.
