Abstract
To report a rare case of a 19-year-old girl who presented with spontaneous bilateral corneal perforation in a setting of ocular rosacea. Ocular rosacea was diagnosed and treated with doxycycline. Cyanoacrylate glue was applied to treat corneal perforations. At six months follow up there is good healing, visual acuity has improved, anterior chamber is deep with no Seidel. Rosacea is a multifactorial disease with an unclear pathophysiology. The ocular manifestations of rosacea (ocular rosacea) may occur without skin involvement, are not specific and can range from mild blepharitis to sight-threatening conditions. This case shows how ocular rosacea can lead to serious vision-threatening complications with mild symptoms. Cyanoacrylate glue and systemic antibiotic treatment are effective treatments.
