Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) is a unique form of zoster dermatitis associated with a high rate of ocular complications that tend to be chronic and may cause vision loss. The ocular complications are highly varied, with keratitis and uveitis being more persistent sequellae of HZO. Oral acyclovir treatment of acute HZO reduces the incidence of the more common ocular complications, including keratitis and uveitis. Although patients treated early in the course of this disease experience a greater clinical response, treatment as late as seven days after onset of cutaneous lesions confers a beneficial prophylactic effect with respect to the ocular complications of HZO.
眼部带状疱疹（HZO）是一种独特的带状疱疹性皮炎形式，伴有高发生率的眼部并发症，这些并发症往往是慢性的，可能导致视力丧失。眼部并发症种类繁多，角膜炎和葡萄膜炎是HZO更持久的后遗症。口服阿昔洛韦治疗急性HZO可降低包括角膜炎和葡萄膜炎在内的较常见眼部并发症的发生率。尽管在该疾病病程早期接受治疗的患者临床反应更大，但在皮肤病变出现后七天内进行治疗对HZO的眼部并发症具有有益的预防作用。
