Description
An account of the resource
Primary care physicians have an important role in diagnosing and treating eye disorders–including dacryocystitis, blepharitis, and conjunctivitis–and in determining when ophthalmologic referral is needed. Fundus examination for diagnosis of glaucoma and diabetic eye complications should be a part of the routine examination in all adults. Patients with HIV or AIDS should be carefully monitored for cytomegalovirus retinitis. Children should be tested for amblyopia. Orbital cellulitis can have serious complications and must be vigorously treated. Finally, careful use of ophthalmologic topical agents, especially corticosteroid drops, is essential.
