Herpes simplex keratitis and amblyopia.

R G Beneish, F R Williams, R C Polomeno, M E Flanders.   

Abstract

Herpes simplex keratitis can cause severe loss of vision in children. The findings in five children show that amblyopia is caused by stimulus deprivation and/or anisometropia. Early medical treatment, occlusion therapy, and frequent refractions are crucial for a good visual prognosis.
