Sinopse
In this episode, we turn our focus to allergic conjunctivitis. Host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP and Ophthalmologist Mitchell Strominger, MD guests review the clinical features of ocular allergy and discuss how characteristics such as discharge and symptom patterns can help distinguish allergic conjunctivitis from viral, bacterial, and other etiologies. The conversation also covers important mimics and red flags, including chemical conjunctivitis, corneal abrasions, and foreign bodies, with guidance on evaluation and management. This episode equips pediatricians with practical tools to accurately assess red eye complaints and determine when further intervention is needed. Have a question? Email questions@vcurb.com.
