+Ceratoconjuntivite vernal é uma forma persistente e grave de alergia ocular que afeta crianças e adultos jovens, geralmente em climas quentes. A ceratoconjuntivite vernal tipicamente aparece em meninos entre as idades de 4 a 12 anos. Os sintomas típicos são coceira intensa, lacrimejamento e fotofobia. A exacerbação da doença pode ser desencadeada pela reexposição ao alérgeno ou por estímulos inespecíficos, como luz solar, vento e poeira. A forma tarsal é caracterizada por papilas hipertróficas de tamanho irregular, levando a uma aparência de paralelepípedos na placa tarsal superior. A forma límbica é caracterizada por infiltrados limbais múltiplos transitórios ou infiltrados conjuntivais gelatinosos amarelo-acinzentados sobrepostos com pontos ou depósitos brancos, conhecidos como pontos de Horner-Trantas, e papilas no limbo.
