AB  - Management of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the eye can be a challenge, because even a single diagnosis can have varied presentations. Although laboratory results may aid in the diagnosis, awareness of other potential causes is important. Some of the more unusual diseases “masquerade” as others, often resulting in a delay in diagnosis and appropriate treatment. This article discusses cases representing some of these masquerades, and described techniques for differentiating potential diagnoses.
