Groundwork[edit]

Alright so the basics are in. Some things that still need doin:

I didn't get sources on treatment of cases with unusual agents, eg nematodes or candida. Shouldn't be too tough to find though.
Need to cover complications, ie what you do when the the patient went untreated long enough for the lesions to thoroughly mangle the cornea
Speaking of which, one source mentions this was apparently a major cause of blindness before advent of steroids, might be worth a history section
The oculist source and the previous editor suggest a cycloplegic, but no other sources do, so i left it out for now. Needs looking at.
Epidemiology: needs doing. Probably huge pain in the ass judging by the massive difference between sources on rate of TB as the agent.

Would be nice to get some images from sometime in the last 2 centuries too. Got our work cut out for us, eh? -- bornLoser (talk) 06:58, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
