There is some pain, but it is mostly that it extremely sensitive. There is redness , but no discharge.

He refuses to go to the emergency room and he's sleeping now. Do you think it would be ok to wait to see his Dr in the morning?

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Good of you to get back to me.
There is a strong possibility of iridocyclitis,but we have to rule out raised pressure as for iridocyclitis you failate the pupil and contract the pupil in raised pressure.So you get my dilemma,so I insist on early diagnosis.Also more we delay the disease spreads all the more.
If he doesn't feel like it ,then see to it that you see the doctor as early in the morning as possible.
