Treatment of ligneous conjunctivitis

A case of ligneous conjunctivitis, which presented in the acute form and converted to a mixed form after several months is described. Treatment with fibrinolysin was of value in reducing the reformation time of the membranes and in decreasing the viscosity of the serofibrinous discharge. The use of cryosurgery appeared to be of value in eliminating the membranes and granuloma and in markedly reducing the production and viscosity of the discharge.
