Keratitis is a common disease in ophthalmology. It is normally caused by various reasons, including infectious factors and non-infectious factors. The treatment principle of keratitis is to control infection, reduce local inflammatory reaction, promote ulcer healing and reduce corneal scar formation. For infectious keratitis, antibiotic eye drops are normally required for symptomatic treatment. For some non-ulcerative keratitis, short-term topical use of glucocorticoid eye drops can be considered. When complicated with iridocyclitis, cycloplegic agents can be used. For some serious inflammation, and uncontrollable, keratoplasty can be considered. Corneal scars affect vision can also be feasible keratoplasty.
