Abstract

Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus may affect the many types of ocular tissues and can be presented with various clinical findings. In this case report, we demonstrate a case presented with eye pain, redness, diplopia, restriction of upgaze started 2 weeks after Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus diagnosis. Orbital myositis, anterior uveitis and partial third nerve palsy were detected in the ocular examination and confirmed with orbit and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Effective treatment is crucial in the prognosis of Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus, nevertheless, properly treated patients should be closely followed-up to prevent possible serious complications.

Özet

Herpes zoster oftalmikus gözde birçok dokuyu tutmakla birlikte sık karşılaşılmayan klinik bulgularla ortaya çıkabilir. Olgu sunumumuzda, oftalmik zona tanısı almış ve tedavisi başlanmış bir hastada iki hafta sonra tabloya eklenen ağrı, kızarıklık, çift görme ve yukarı bakış kısıtlılığı vurgulanmıştır. Hastamızda yapılan oftalmolojik muayene, orbita ve kraniyal manyetik rezonans ve görsel uyarılmış potansiyel testleri sonucunda herpes zostere bağlı orbital miyozit, 3. kraniyal sinir tutulumu ve ön üveit saptanmıştır. Etkili tedavi, herpes zoster oftalmikusun prognozunda çok önemlidir, ancak uygun şekilde tedavi edilen hastalar bile olası ciddi komplikasyonları önlemek için yakından takip edilmelidir.
