Ophthalmological involvement in rosacea: Ocular rosacea

Abstract

Rosacea is a common, chronic disorder that can present with a variety of cutaneous or ocular manifestations. Cutaneous involvement primarily affects the central face, with findings, such as persistent centrofacial redness, papulopustules, flushing, telangiectasia, and phymatous skin changes (e.g., rhinophyma). Ocular involvement may manifest with lid margin telangiectases, conjunctival injection, ocular irritation, or other signs and symptoms. In this review, we focus on the ophthalmological manifestations of rosacea and its management.
