The patient is a 10 years-old girl, with chief complaint of recent bilateral red eye and history of chickenpox disease. Examination revealed nodular episcleritis of both eyes. After treatment with topical steroids, the disease was subsided. Varicella-Zoster virus is a rare cause of episcleritis. In this case it seems that the mechanism of involvement is immune-related, rather than direct tissue involvement by virus. Bilateral nodular episcleritis due to Varicella-Zoster virus
