مستخلص: Background: Ocular herpes simplex is usually caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and less commonly by the type 2 virus (HSV-2). Ocular manifestations of HSV include blepharitis, conjunctivitis, lacrimal system obstruction, corneal involvement, and uveitis. Corneal involvement is one of the causes of loss of vision and can be epithelial herpetic keratitis or stromal herpetic keratitis.
Objective: A significant population has a colonization of herpes viruses. Under certain circumstances, these viruses can reactivate with a significant ocular morbidity. Globally, COVID-19 vaccines are recommended; however, the vaccine safety data are limited.
Case Report: Herein, we reported a case of herpetic keratitis reactivation that occurred 2 days after receiving SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine. The patient is a 50-year-old man who underwent penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) in 2020 for corneal opacity caused by a previous herpes simplex keratitis in 2013. Herpetic keratitis was treated successfully with topical antiviral acyclovir along with topical moxifloxacin and artificial tears. After treatment, prophylactic oral acyclovir was started.
Conclusion: Both ophthalmologist and patients should be aware of this phenomenon. Long-term prophylactic antiviral treatment may be recommended for those patients.
