3 years ago I had iritis in one of my eyes. I can't remember how it started other than to begin with I thought (as did the GP) it was conjunctivitis.
Anyway last night and today one of my eyes hurts in bright light and is looking a bit pink. I'm 99% sure its not conjunctivitis but not sure if its iritis/uveitis again or just sore from a foreign body or something.
Anyone got any experience? (especially if they've had it more tham once as I know this can be an indication of an underlying illness/problem).
Thanks
PS - I know I need to go to the GP really but I think I'm just hoping I won't need to as its PITA if they send me to Opthamology as DD's at school, I have DS with me, I'll need to drive there and might not be allowed to drive back cos of eye drops, DPs not working nearby etc etc....sorry wibbling on a bit now
