Rosacea does not always remain confined to the skin. In a subset of patients, ocular structures become involved, presenting a distinct clinical picture that requires specific management.
Ocular rosacea can include symptoms such as conjunctivitis, blepharitis, ocular irritation, ocular dryness, or keratitis. When one or more of these features are present alongside rosacea, the therapeutic approach must account for this ocular involvement.
In severe cases of ocular rosacea, particularly when eyelid disease is pronounced, a surgical intervention may become part of the management pathway. The structured regimen covers the full decision framework for this scenario.
