Reactive arthritis
is occasionally associated with conjunctivitis and uveitis, but rarely
keratitis
. The authors describe a patient with paracentral anterior stromal
keratitis
with overlying epithelial erosion and multiple satellite subepithelial infiltrates. The initial appearance and the severe pain were suggestive of an infectious process. Recovery was rapid following introduction of topical steroid, with features suggesting an immune process in the recovery phase. The authors suggest that a history of arthritis and/or recent enteritis should be sought in the work-up of an atypical
keratitis
with or without epithelial defect. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53:e61-e63.].
