Accelerated Recovery : The Role of Oral Steroid in the Management of Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus-Related Ophthalmoplegia
Copyright © 2023, Khadamy et al..
The use of systemic steroids in managing herpes zoster ophthalmicus-related ophthalmoplegia (HZORO) remains a topic of debate. Here, a case involving third nerve HZORO is highlighted, where a regimen of oral valacyclovir followed by a brief course of oral steroids resulted in significant improvement within days and complete resolution of the palsy within a month of initiating the treatment. This case underscores the need for randomized controlled studies to definitively determine the efficacy of systemic steroids in alleviating or shortening the course of HZORO.
