Is eye pain part of crohn's?

[Farmwife]

Hi, Grace my 3 yr. old had a ruff day. She has had eye pains off and on for three days. They come and go. I guess I wasn't thinking anything about it until tonight. Is it related to Crohn's? I fear she on the verge of a big flare up. Each time she has a flare up new symptoms come.

Thanks,

My 10 year old gets a lot of headaches and when she has them, she says her eyes hurt.

Crohns can be related to eye inflammation. I don't know much about it but it's called uveitis. The link below has some info for you.

Tesscorm is 100% correct uvitis is known complication of chrons, if you are suspicious that she has any imflamation or anything going on with her eye, you should take her to your GP or ER for review, they will know by looking into her eyes if she has anything untoward going on in there.

Sarah always suffered with eye pain as a symptom. Sometimes it was accompanied with a headache, other times not. It wasn't uveitis and you couldn't physically see anything was wrong. It did resolve when she gained remission.
