Síndrome oculoglandular de Parinaud - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Síndrome oculoglandular

Tratamiento:

Los antibióticos pueden ser útiles, dependiendo de la causa de la infección. Es posible que la cirugía sea necesaria en casos excepcionales para eliminar los tejidos infectados.

Expectativas (pronóstico):

El pronóstico depende de la causa de la infección. En general, si el diagnóstico se hace a tiempo y se inicia el tratamiento inmediatamente, el pronóstico del síndrome oculoglandular de Parinaud puede ser muy bueno.

Complicaciones:

Las complicaciones serias son infrecuentes.

Los nódulos conjuntivales algunas veces pueden formar llagas (úlceras) durante el proceso de cicatrización. La infección puede diseminarse hacia tejidos circundantes o al torrente sanguíneo.

Situaciones que requieren asistencia médica:

Usted debe llamar al médico si se desarrolla dolor, enrojecimiento o irritación en el ojo.
