Abstract
AbstractAlthough the incidence of ocular herpes simplex virus infection has not diminished in recent years, we are encountering fewer severe problems such as necrotizing stromal keratitis and diffuse disciform keratitis which may necessitate penetrating keratoplasty. The earlier recognition of herpes simplex viral keratitis and the better management utilizing oral antivirals and topical corticosteroids is probably responsible for this improved outlook of herpes simplex keratitis. Early recognition and management of acute and chronic herpetic keratitis, as well as the management of keratoplasty for herpes will be reviewed.
