Research Notes on Herpes Keratitis
Herpes Keratitis is a corneal infection caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV). The transparent part of the eyes becomes inflamed, causing moderate to intense pain, with visual impairment. This generally requires antiviral treatment, which is available in eye drops and pills; Intravenous therapy and surgical approach in advanced conditions. With proper medical attention, the infection usually disappears without long-term visual loss.
