i. What are the differential diagnosis for this condition.
ii. What is the diagnosis?
iii. How will you give treatment?

According to the question, if the answer is CONJUCTIVITS, it may be wrong, because in CONJUNCTIVITS involves both eyes. Plus the redness is unilateral. So I want to ask what is the correct diagnosis of this question. Will be thankful to you.

the answer is Bacterial Conjuctivitis. It usually involves both eyes but not always. Sometimes it starts in one eye and then infect the other eye after 1~2 days. Plus there is stickness in the eye which gives a clue about bac. conjuctivitis.
Kindly let us know what u think should be the answer...and then we can have a little chit chat which will definitely be helpful for other students.

thanks xavier for the answer ,i also thought the same answer ,but in OXford hand book of clinical specialites and from other book and also from PLAB Digest ,i studied that conjuntivits is only one that has involves both eyes,but in case there is mentioning of only one eye ,so that confused me alot ,,

my second opinion is that there is also red eye in bacterial keratitis, and blepharospasm that mean closing of eyelid,
so that also cover STICKness of eye,

one more thing this is also possible that the scenario was missing e.g instead of unilateral there might be b/L ,that remove the dought completely, may be, but you know ,all i know was according to my knowledge,plz if iam wrong ,ifrom me ,your early response is highly appreciated

This page is from Oxford handbook of Opthalmology....see the line underlined in red. Usually bilateral but may be sequential, means can involve one eye in the begining and the other one later.

conju.jpg



However, the point here is PAINFUL red eye. There is no pain in conjuuctivitis, but discomfort or burning is present. As the patient is 6 years old boy, he can not differentiate 'discomfort' from 'pain' ... so he will give history of pain instead of discomfort. (The scenario is totally correct and there was painful red eye plus stickness in left eye)

Blepharospasm is totally a different thing. There is twitching of eyelid and then dryness of eyes in blepharospasm.
