Definition in the intro

It says it's an infection of the coats of the eye. It's an infection of the interior of the eye, and I don't think the word coat will be understood to mean that - I think it can be in the fluid too.[1] Ping User:Doc_James Hildabast (talk) 19:07, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Interior of the eye is better, agree. Have adjusted. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 23:51, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
