Overview

This section provides a short and straight to the point overview of the disease or symptom. The first sentence of the overview must contain the name of the disease.

Red eye is defined as a symptom of red eye as the major clinical finding. A detailed history, baseline ophthalmological tests, and accompanying manifestations can narrow down the differential diagnosis. The duration and laterality of symptoms (uni- vs. bilateral) and the intensity of pain are the main criteria allowing the differentiation of non-critical changes that can be cared for by a general practitioner from diseases calling for elective referral to an ophthalmologist and eye emergencies requiring urgent ophthalmic surgery.[1][2]

Causes

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions that may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.[3]

  • globe ruptures or perforations
  • intraocular infections
  • Carotid–cavernous sinus fistula

Common Causes[4][5][6][7]

  • Viral conjunctivitis
  • bacterial
  • Iritis/iridocyclitis
  • Acute angle-closure glaucoma
  • Disorders of the ocular adnexa(Hordeolum-Eyelid malposition)
  • Eyelid malposition
  • Intraocular disorders
  • Episcleritis
  • Photokeratitis
  • Corneal erosion/ulceration
  • Subconjunctival hemorrhage
  • Allergic reactions
  • Non-infectious (kerato-)conjunctivitis
  • Contact lens
  • blunt or penetrating trauma
  • foreign bodies
