Appointment prep
Prepare for a Cogan's syndrome evaluation
Eye inflammation (like keratitis), hearing loss, and vertigo are often misdiagnosed as separate eye/ear problems. Medvo helps you recognize the syndrome and request rheumatology and ophthalmology/ENT referral — framed as evaluation, never diagnosis.
Symptoms patients describe
- · Red, painful eyes with vision changes (interstitial keratitis)
- · Sudden hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo
- · Systemic symptoms like fever, joint pain, or fatigue
Tests & referrals to request
Framed as evaluation — your clinician decides what is appropriate.
- · Ophthalmology and ENT evaluation with audiometry
- · Autoimmune serologies and referral to rheumatologist
- · Imaging to rule out other causes (e.g., infection, tumor)
If you've been dismissed
- · Eye and ear symptoms treated in isolation for months
- · No recognition of the inflammatory syndrome pattern
