Abstract:
Twenty-one cases of epithelial herpetic keratitis were treated with cryotherapy and 14 cases were treated with Iodoxouridine (IDU). Cryotherapy was found statistically superior to IDU. The average healing time was 2.4 days for cryotherapy and 6.2 days for IDU. The advantages of cryotherapy are emphasized.
