(1b) The conjunctivitis associated with recent measles in children between the ages of 6 months and 6 years. There are also some important, but less common causes of an acute red eye
(2) A corneal ulcer.
(3) Acute iritis.
(4) Acute glaucoma.
(5) Trauma is another cause, but the diagnosis is usually obvious from the history.
