Ocular Inflammatory Disorders in Children

Ocular inflammatory disorders in children refer to a group of conditions where the eye tissues become inflamed, causing symptoms like redness, pain, blurry vision, or sensitivity to light. These conditions can result from infections, allergies, autoimmune responses, or even trauma. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial as they can affect vision and overall eye health. Common types include uveitis, conjunctivitis, and keratitis. Pediatric ophthalmologists often manage these disorders with medications like corticosteroids or immunosuppressants, and in some cases, additional treatments may be needed to address the underlying causes. Regular follow-ups are essential for monitoring progress.
