Abstract
This paper was reviewed Hepes Zoster ophthalmicus cases with and medical treatment. We reported 3 cases. In case 1, the patients took steroids although steroids were more effective. In our experience, steroids associated with antiviral drugs were more effective in case 1. In case 2 and 3, the patients have been used local steroids associated with acetazolamide with more effective. The 2 cases (case 2 and case 3) are elderly patient with HIV (-), without glaucoma surgery. In the case 2 was treated with steroid associated with acetazolamide. The case 3 was treated in the same case 1 but we added antiviral drug. All these patients have restored vision and have normalized intraocular pressure, and some satisfying results were reported here after one year follow-up.
