ABSTRACT
Conjunctivitis of allergic origin is associated with a diversity of clinical presentation. The common features include pronounced itching, a milky conjunctival appearance, a stringy or ropy discharge & papillary hypertrophy of the tarsal conjunctiva in severe cases, and a family history of allergy. The pathogenesis of ocular allergy involves multiple mechanisms, which lead to mast cell degranulation & the release of chemical mediators. The current therapy of ocular allergy involves elimination of the offending allergen, modulation of the immune system, & pharmacologic inhibition of chemical mediators. We are reporting 5 cases of severe allergic keratoconjunctivitis.
