IMPORTANT!
The information in this section cannot be used for self-diagnosis and self-treatment.
In case of pain or other exacerbation of the disease, diagnostic tests should be prescribed only by the attending physician. To make a diagnosis and properly prescribe treatment, you should contact your doctor. Redness of the eyes: causes of occurrence, what diseases it occurs with, diagnosis and treatment methods.
The expression “red eyes” or “red eye syndrome” is used when the small blood vessels of the eyes greatly dilate and sometimes burst, causing general congestion of the eye tissue.
Varieties
Hyperemia, or redness of the eyes (eyes), can be limited to focal manifestations (point hemorrhages) or be total (redness of the sclera, conjunctiva and cornea of the eye). In some cases, redness is not accompanied by additional symptoms, while in others itching, lacrimation, and swelling of the tissues surrounding the eyes occur.
The main criteria determining the need for urgent medical consultation in such cases are pain and blurred vision.
Ophthalmologists use the term "injection" to describe red eyes. Localization of hyperemic areas in the eye area allows you to determine where the source of inflammation is located. Conjunctival, or superficial, injection is accompanied by redness of the conjunctiva due to its inflammatory changes. Pericorneal (deep, ciliary) injection occurs when the outer layer of the sclera or cornea becomes inflamed. A mixed injection is also possible, in which the vessels of the conjunctiva and episclera become hyperemic. If the inflammatory process involves the sclera of the eye, scleral injection occurs. With glaucoma, stagnant injection may occur.
What diseases cause redness of the eyes?
Redness of the eyes does not always indicate a disease.
The reasons for this condition may include eye fatigue due to high stress, especially when working at a computer for long periods of time or in poor lighting, using incorrectly selected glasses or contact lenses, swimming underwater, being in strong winds, exposure to irritating substances and drinking alcohol.
Common causes of red eyes include
dry eye syndrome
. This condition occurs when the tear film dries out and is accompanied by a burning sensation, a feeling of sand in the eyes, and sometimes increased lacrimation. Wearing contact lenses can aggravate the symptoms of dry eye syndrome.
Eye diseases themselves are also accompanied by redness, or injection of blood vessels. First of all, you should avoid getting a foreign body into the eye.
.
Mechanical particles (shavings from metal processing industries, sand, small insects) can injure the eye, but chemical and thermal burns
.
Even minor damage to the eye is accompanied by pain, redness of the conjunctiva, pain, lacrimation, and photophobia.
One of the most common causes of eye redness is infectious diseases: influenza, measles, rubella, chicken pox and scarlet fever.
measles virus
enters the body through the respiratory tract and spreads through the blood throughout the body. It affects not only the skin, but also the mucous membranes, including redness of the conjunctiva of the eyes. In severe cases of the disease, lacrimation and photophobia appear, and point ulcerations of the conjunctiva and cornea may occur.
Dangerous complications of measles include keratoconjunctivitis, which can lead to vision loss.
Rubella
virus , spreading through the lymphatic system, penetrates the skin and mucous membranes. When the virus gets on the conjunctiva of the eyes, it causes redness with the formation of blisters and lacrimation. In the transitional fold of the conjunctiva, accumulation of mucous discharge is possible.
Chicken pox
, the causative agent of which is the herpes virus, also affects the mucous membrane of the eye. Clinical symptoms of the disease are similar to conjunctivitis, keratitis and other inflammatory processes and include redness of the conjunctiva and skin of the eyelids, blurred vision, pain and lacrimation.
Hyperemia and swelling of the conjunctiva often indicate infectious or allergic conjunctivitis
. The disease begins suddenly and affects first one eye and then the other. The conjunctiva of the eyelids and transitional folds swells and becomes dark red. Noticeably purulent discharge, especially after sleep. At the same time, inflammation of the cornea is possible with the appearance of grayish infiltrates along the edge of the cornea.
Among specific conjunctivitis, the most dangerous is gonorrheal conjunctivitis (blennorrhea), which can damage the cornea.
Conjunctivitis of a viral nature is accompanied by hyperemia of the mucous membrane of the eye and sclera, but more often the discharge is not purulent, but mucous.
Allergic conjunctivitis is characterized by an acute onset, accompanied by severe itching, swelling, redness of the conjunctiva and the development of corneal syndrome. In severe cases, the cornea is affected.
Inflammation of the superficial layer of the sclera ( episcleritis
) and involvement of the entire fibrous membrane of the eye (
scleritis
) in the process, hyperemia is complemented by symptoms such as swelling, pain with pressure and movement of the eyeball. With episcleritis, the surface capillaries dilate, while the border of redness is not clearly defined. In 80% of cases, diffuse episcleritis occurs, accompanied by mild pain, redness of the eyes, lacrimation and photophobia. As the inflammatory process moves into deeper tissues, scleritis develops. It is characterized by dilation of the looped network of vessels and the occurrence of pericorneal injection. This is manifested by the formation of lilac-purple spots on the sclera around the cornea. Individual vessels are not visible because they are covered by the outer episcleral tissue. The degree of hyperemia decreases towards the arches of the eye.
Inflammation of the cornea, or keratitis
, also accompanied by redness of the eye (pericorneal and mixed injection). In addition, keratitis is characterized by symptoms of corneal irritation (pain, lacrimation, photophobia and blepharospasm - squinting), and in the absence of adequate treatment - clouding of the cornea.
Most often, inflammation of the cornea is caused by a herpes infection.
With relapses, the formation of an ulcer is possible, which involves the internal membranes (keratouveitis). Clinical signs of keratitis include hyperemia (pericorneal and mixed injection), pain, signs of irritation of the cornea (blepharospasm, photophobia and lacrimation), and impaired transparency of the cornea.
In the absence or improper treatment, the inflammatory process can spread to the deep-lying structures of the eye - the iris, ciliary body.
, keratoiritis, keratoiridocyclitis
or
keratouveitis
develops . Irritation and redness of the eye increase sharply. Swelling of the eyelids and cornea is observed. Clouding of the cornea is accompanied by deterioration of vision, and if left untreated, complete loss of vision.
Congestion in the vessels located near the limbus (a narrow strip separating the cornea and sclera) is detected during an acute attack of glaucoma
and are characterized by local redness at the limbus.
This disease rarely begins acutely, and more often than not one eye is affected first.
After a short period of time, glaucoma is detected in the second eye. The congestive form of glaucoma has specific symptoms: blurred vision, rainbow circles, progression of myopia, and sometimes pain or discomfort in the eye area. Such symptoms are caused by an increase in intraocular pressure, as a result of which lesions form in the anterior segment of the eye. Congestive hyperemia of the anterior ciliary vessels is noticeable already at the advanced stage of the disease. Dilated and blood-filled vessels are clearly visible on the sclera near the limbus. At the same time, dullness and decreased sensitivity of the cornea, dilation of the pupil, and sometimes a change in its shape, decreased visual acuity and limitation of visual fields are noted.
Which doctors should I contact?
If redness of the eyes appears as an independent symptom, you should immediately visit an ophthalmologist. Redness of the eyes that occurs with infectious diseases such as measles, rubella, chicken pox requires consultation or.
Diagnostics and examination
Diagnosis of diseases that are accompanied by redness of the eyes is carried out on the basis of complaints, questioning and examination of the patient.
Pay attention to possible provoking factors (injuries, flowering plants, prolonged work at the computer) and the localization of hyperemia.
The cornea, anterior chamber, iris and pupil are examined using side illumination and a slit lamp. Be sure to measure eye pressure using tonometers. If dry eye syndrome is suspected, the doctor uses a special dye to assess the condition of the tear film, conjunctiva, and meibomian glands. With conjunctivitis, it is sometimes difficult to determine the etiology, so a blood test is necessary to determine eosinophils and ESR.
