  • Title: Current management of ophthalmic zoster.
    Author: Marsh RJ.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Ophthalmol; 1990 Aug; 18(3):273-9. PubMed ID: 2261174.
    Abstract:
    Most ophthalmic zoster occurs in healthy people and ocular complications occur in 50%. The mainstay of ocular therapy is topical steroid, but careful follow-up and withdrawal are essential. The place of systemic steroid therapy and acyclovir in immunocompetent patients with zoster is uncertain.
