OBJECTIVE: the goal of this clinical case is to report a case of ophthalmic zoster in children and to insist on the relevance of early antiviral treatment so as to minimize corneal affection and preserve visual function.
OBSERVATION: we report an eleven-years-old-girl case, with a history of varicella infection at 5 years old, who came for consultation for a painful eruption affecting the forehead, the upper eyelid, the nose, and the upper lips. The clinical examination showed many vesicles erythematous affecting the left hemi face. The diagnosis of ophthalmic zoster has been retained. The biological checkup was done namely blood count, and glycemia in empty stomach and a HIV serology. This checkup was normal. The treatment was a local antiseptic based and systemic with acyclovir and antalgic (tramadol) during 8 days. The evolution was favorable. Zoster is rare in children. The ophthalmic form is exceptional. The diagnosis is clinical and should mention some bladdery lesions grouped in bunch with a disposition which follows a metamere. It can be responsible of serious ocular complications which can compromise the visual function.
CONCLUSION: the particularity of our observation is the presence of zoster in immunocompetent child and the ophthalmic localization remaining an exceptional form in children.
