A case of herpetic epithelial keratitis after triamcinolone acetonide subtenon injection.
We report a case of herpes simplex virus (HSV) epithelial keratitis that developed after a subtenon triamcinolone acetonide (TA) injection.. A 78-year-old woman with a branch retinal vein occlusion and diffuse macular edema in her left eye received a subtenon injection of 20 mg of TA.. Six days after the injection, the patient presented with a foreign body sensation, tearing, redness, and photophobia in the same eye. Slit-lamp examination revealed multiple corneal dendriform ulcers. She was diagnosed with HSV epithelial keratitis and treated with topical acyclovir ointment. The epithelial lesions healed after 1 week of therapy.. HSV epithelial keratitis can be a possible complication of a TA subtenon injection.

Central retinal vein occlusion due to herpes zoster as the initial presenting sign in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) due to herpes zoster has rarely been reported. Varicella zoster virus is a common opportunistic infection in patients with AIDS. This case report is about a 40-year-old man with herpes zoster ophthalmicus and central retinal vein occlusion of the right eye who is HIV-positive. Although the lesion resolved following treatment with intravenous acyclovir and oral steroid, the patient subsequently developed florid disc neovascularization and vitreous hemorrhage. The paper highlights CRVO as the initial presentation in an AIDS patient with herpes zoster ophthalmicus.
