Chronic unilateral anterior scleritis, think about a herpetic origin: A case report.

Scleritis is a very heterogeneous group of diseases responsible for ocular inflammation of varying severity, the evolution and prognosis of which depend on the etiology but also on the appropriate treatment. We report the case of a 15-year-old female patient, without any notable general history, followed in consultation for 3 months for a nodular scleritis not improving under usual treatments. She was reconsulted when her symptoms worsened and the examination revealed a minimal reaction of the anterior chamber, in addition to the nodular scleritis localized in the temporal region, with the notion of a vesicular eruption in the perioral region on the same side of the ocular involvement and preceding the ocular symptoms by one week, consistent with a cutaneous herpes.
