dc.description.abstractThe pharmacist may see any of the following red eye cases and this clinical quiz is not only aimed at over-the-counter (OTC) medication, but also illustrates the importance of referring patients who do not respond to OTC medicines for (urgent) medical attention. The case studies are discussed in more detail after the initial case presentations. Read the case studies and decide whether the causes are infective, allergic, inflammatory, degenerative or neoplastic and decide what treatment you would prescribe for the customer and whether you would refer the patient for medical attention.
