Interstitial Keratitis Following Varicella Vaccination

Case report of transient corneal edema after immunization with adenovirus-vectored COVID-19 vaccine

“…[ 1 ] Immune-mediated corneal inflammatory reactions, such as, immunological corneal ring and interstitial keratitis, have also been reported after varicella vaccination. [ 3 , 4 ]…”

“…[1] Immune-mediated corneal inflammatory reactions, such as, immunological corneal ring and interstitial keratitis, have also been reported after varicella vaccination. [3,4] There is also a possibility that adenovirus vector might be associated with corneal edema. Canine adenovirus vaccine was shown to be associated with corneal edema.…”

Acute retinal necrosis following recombinant subunit varicella-zoster virus vaccine

“…Two reported cases of interstitial keratitis following Zostavax administration suggest that the live attenuated vaccine can cause an unintended reactivation of a previously controlled immune response. 17 , 18 Only 6 cases of presumed Zostavax associated viral retinitis have been reported in the literature. 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 Charkoudian et al were the first to report 2 cases of ARN following Zostavax administration in a 76-year-old woman with end stage renal disease and an 80-year-old man with renal transplant on immunosuppression, 6 days and 2 months after receiving the vaccine, respectively.…”

Varicella-Zoster Virus Detection in Varicella-Associated Stromal Keratitis

“…2 For herpes zoster ophthalmicus-related stromal keratitis, presence of varicella-zoster virus in the stroma has been well documented. 3,4 However, documentation of the virus in the cornea following varicella is sparse.…”
