Q: I am having frequent attacks of iridocyclitis in the left eye for the last twenty years. The attacks mostly occur at the start of winters or when I eat curd. Recently, I had developed blind spot enlargement too. What do I do?
A:Recurrent iridocyclitis will require treatment with corticosteroids, under supervision of an eye doctor. Blind spot enlargement should be investigated as it could be a neurological problem.
