Rebound iritis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the iris that occurs after the discontinuation of steroid eye drops, often used to treat eye conditions. This phenomenon typically arises when the underlying inflammation reemerges or worsens once the medication is stopped, leading to symptoms such as eye pain, light sensitivity, and blurred vision. It is important for patients to work closely with their eye care professionals to manage and taper steroid use appropriately to minimize the risk of rebound effects. Treatment may involve the use of anti-inflammatory medications or other therapeutic approaches to control the inflammation.
