Abstract:
A case of acrodermatitis enteropathica occurred with corneal changes consisting of superficial punctate lesions, nebulous subepithelial opacities and linear epithelial erosions. These manifestations exacerbated intermittently whenever the patient ran out of her oral zinc sulphate therapy, but regressed and disappeared when she resumed her medication.
