Abstract:
:To diagnose the cause of chronic unilateral external ocular inflammation, the physician must take into account many factors usually not considered in bilateral cases. We report on the diagnosis and treatment of ten unilateral cases encompassing a variety of ocular and systemic problems. The purpose of this report is to emphasize the importance of systematic consideration of all diagnostic possibilities and to suggest a diagnostic protocol to aid in the study of patients with chronic unilateral external ocular inflammation.
