Hello
It seems from the history that you are having redness of eyes. Since he has asked for tests like Mantoux tests probably he is thinking of inflammation of the eye like uveitis.
The treatment of this condition is by use of anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
