Atopische Keratokonjunktivitis

Zusammenfassung

Es hat sich bewährt, die atopische Keratokonjunktivitis als eine nicht infektiöse entzündliche Augenerkrankung, die mit einer Atopie vergesellschaftet ist, zu definieren. Die Immunpathogenese wird bisher nicht vollständig verstanden. Die Diagnose basiert auf einer gezielten Anamnese und der klinischen Manifestation. Die Erkrankung kann einen überaus schwerwiegenden Verlauf nehmen. Daher benötigt ein erfolgreiches Management der atopischen Keratokonjunktivitis einen multidisziplinären Ansatz, welcher die Prävention, die dermatologische Betreuung und einen entsprechenden ophthalmologischen Behandlungsalgorithmus umfasst.

Abstract

It is useful to define atopic keratoconjunctivitis (AKC) as a non-infectious inflammatory condition of the ocular surface, which is associated with atopy. The pathogenesis of the disorder is not completely understood. The diagnosis is based on the patientʼs history and the clinical manifestations. Successful management of AKC, which can become a serious condition, requires a multidisciplinary approach that involves prevention, dermatological care and an adequate ophthalmological treatment algorithm.
