Can viral vesicular keratitis blind?

If the patient uses acyclovir, ganciclovir or famciclovir under the guidance of a doctor in time to control the infection, it generally will not cause blindness. However, if the patient is not treated in time, it may lead to corneal ulcer or scar formation, resulting in vision decline or even blindness.

Patients should be treated in time. Good hygiene habits should be developed at ordinary times. Avoid rubbing eyes with hands. Also, ensure adequate sleep and relieve eye fatigue.
