Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic allergic conjunctival inflammatory disorder frequently associated with secondary keratopathy. The characteristic hallmark of VKC is the presence of giant papillae, usually in the upper tarsal conjunctiva, but in some cases in the conjunctiva at the corneoscleral limbus (Figure 6.1). The eyelid margins are not involved, in contrast to other types of allergic keratoconjunctivitis. Other typical signs of VKC include bulbar conjunctival hyperemia, a thick mucus discharge, and corneal involvement, including superficial punctate keratitis, epithelial erosions, shield ulcers, or plaques (Figure 1).

The diagnosis is generally confirmed by the finding at the ocular examination of conjunctival hyperemia, papillary hypertrophy in the tarsal
