[A case of primary herpetic eye disease]. / Un cas de primo-infection herpétique oculaire.

Herpetic eye disease is very common. However, primary infections are most frequently asymptomatic. We report herein a case of a 15-year-old male whose diagnosis of primary herpetic infection was delayed and who initially had unsuitable treatment that aggravated the symptoms. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis of primary herpetic infection, which allows an adapted therapeutic care.
