Iritis symptoms and prognosis?

summary

There are many causes of iridocyclitis. In addition to the direct entry of bacteria, viruses, foreign bodies and chemicals into the eyes caused by ocular trauma, systemic diseases such as tuberculosis, leprosy, rheumatism and leptospirosis are the important causes of iridocyclitis. Other eye tissues adjacent to iris and ciliary body, such as keratitis and scleritis, can also cause the disease. Iritis symptoms and prognosis? Let's talk about it

Iritis symptoms and prognosis?

The trigeminal nerve of iris and ciliary body was not slightly toxic stimulated. The pain caused by contraction of ciliary muscle and compression of swollen tissue could be reflected to eyebrow arch and cheek. There was obvious tenderness in ciliary body, and the pain was aggravated at night,

In the acute stage, there is often a reaction of keratitis and shyness. The lacrimal vision may suddenly decline. This is due to the influence of corneal edema, corneal deposition and inflammatory exudation on the entry of light. The ciliary body is stimulated by inflammation and produces reflex spasm, resulting in pseudomyopia. In the late stage, it can be combined with macular edema and optic neuroretinitis.

Because of the temperature difference between the posterior part of the cornea and the iris surface, the inflammatory cells and pigments adhere to the rough corneal endothelium after inflammation, that is, the corneal deposition. The deposition is mostly in the lower part of the corneal center, with the tip toward the pupil area, large particles in the lower part and small particles in the upper part.

matters needing attention

For patients with panuveitis or choroiditis, 0.025% dexamethasone can be injected under conjunctiva or eyeball fascia, or combined with systemic administration. For patients with severe disease, hydrocortisone or dexamethasone can be given intravenously once a day, so that sufficient amount can reach the intraocular tissue.
