  • Conjunctivitis, episcleritis, and scleritis are common causes of red eyes.
  • These inflammatory conditions affect the external layers of the eye.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the potential severity of these eye inflammations.
  • To emphasize their role as potential indicators of systemic disease.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical presentations of conjunctivitis, episcleritis, and scleritis.
