Shield Ulcer of the Cornea in Vernal conjunctivitis | |
The cornea may be affected as well in vernal conjunctivitis. An indolent superficial ulcer develops with opaque edges and plaque formation through deposition of mucus and cells. Here one sees a partially healed shield ulcer with ring-like superficial opacification and some remaining debris. | |
