Rarely HSV-2 may be transmitted to the eye through infected secretions, either venereally or at birth (neonatal conjunctivitis) Remember : Corneal Sensation in herpetic keratitis ARN is a biphasic disease which tends to be caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV) in younger patients and VZV in older individuals
