Can you please help me with this mcq:- Earliest symptom in corneal ulcer is A. Pain B. Photophobia 3. Loss of sensation D. Diminished vision

[@InsightOphthalmology]

Loss of sensation ( usually viral keratitis) and diminution of vision( based on whether pupillary axis is involved or not) comes later. So the answer should be either pain or photophobia . In practice I have seen patients coming with pain first.
