Abstract

Ocular rosacea is an incurable disease that affects millions of Americans annually. While multiple therapeutic strategies have been devised to address this disorder (including topical and oral medications, laser and light-based treatments, and surgical interventions), our current interventions are largely nonspecific and often ineffective. Nonetheless, ocular rosacea remains a source of intense research, and newer treatments offer tremendous promise for improved outcomes. In this review, we discuss the current and emerging treatment modalities for ocular rosacea and analyze novel basic science findings that will hopefully lead to highly targeted medications to treat this potentially blinding illness with greater specificity and fewer side effects.
