    Abstract:
    Kawasaki's disease is a mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome associated with an acute febrile illness affecting children. Ocular signs are a principal presenting feature with hyperhemic indurated limbal sparing inflammation (88 to 96%), and some mild anterior uveitis. We report a case of disciform keratitis affecting a 10 year old child. Ocular features of Kawasaki's Disease resolved completely within a few weeks.
