TITLE:  Management of Anterior Segment Pain and Inflammation

ABSTRACT: Anterior segment disease due to infection, endogenous inflammatory conditions, and trauma is manifested by signs and symptoms of pain and inflammation. Even relatively minor eye conditions may be associated with significant patient discomfort which may be under-estimated by the examining doctor. It is important to know that pain and inflammation are not disease entities, but rather, signs and symptoms that accompany certain diseases. Treatments therefore, are nonspecific in nature. The medications available and their therapeutic indications in the treatment of anterior segment inflammation and pain are discussed here.
