Abstract:
PURPOSE OF REVIEW:Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) has the potential to cause significant visual morbidity and functional disability in patients with recalcitrant disease, keratitis, and postherpetic neuralgia. This article will review the current methods of prevention and treatment of anterior segment-related chronic complications of HZO. RECENT FINDINGS:HZO-related anterior segment ocular complications can range to include conjunctivitis, keratitis, and uveitis that can all be difficult to manage. Furthermore, many clinicians differ in their approach to disease management given the relative lack of large randomized controlled trials to guide therapy. The goal in managing complications of HZO is to reduce visual morbidity and to improve analgesia, and here, we present current recommendations for the management of anterior segment complications of HZO. SUMMARY:Recent advances in vaccine technology and the initiation of the Zoster Eye Disease Study improve the possibility of reducing the burden of disease while also further standardizing management of HZO.
