Get an eye exam: If your suffering from an inflammatory eye condition it should be managed under strict guidance of an eye md. Many conditions cause inflammation but if left untreated they will lead to permanent blindless due to retinal or optic nerve damage (glaucoma).

See ophthalmologist: This can be a sign of systemic disease that could be life threatening. See an ophthalmologist to be sure it is evaluated and treated properly or needs referral to another physician.
