| Conditions requiring referral to an ophthalmologist are orbital cellulitis, hyphaema, scleritis, iritis or uveitis, acute angle closure glaucoma, and corneal abrasions. |
| Although rare, complications such as bacterial infection, ulceration or iritis can develop if the abrasion is not treated. |
| This inflammation, called iridocyclitis or iritis or uveitis, can be detected early by an ophthalmologist. |
| Hepatitis, iritis, lymphadenopathy, and renal abnormalities also can be seen. |
| The most common type of uveitis is an inflammation of the iris called iritis. |
| Patients with inflammatory eye diseases are at risk for ocular vaccinial diseases, including blepharitis, iritis, and keratitis. |
