Scleritis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Scleritis is inflammation of the sclera, the tough white layer that covers the outer part of the eye. It is a condition that can be uncomfortable and, in some cases, associated with inflammatory diseases of the body.
Common symptoms: eye redness, pain that can be intense, sensitivity to light, and discomfort when moving the eye.
When to see a doctor? Marked eye pain or persistent redness warrants a checkup, since the eye is a delicate structure.
Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist is the right professional to evaluate and follow up on this inflammation. If you notice eye discomfort that does not go away, the best thing is to have it evaluated in time by a professional.
