Brief Summary:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 0.1% tacrolimus combined with loteprednol etabonate 0.5%/tobramycin 0.3% (LE/T) in vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) patients resistant to conventional treatment. This prospective 6-mouth period study aims to include 20 severe VKC patients who were not responding to conventional treatments. All the patients will be treated with 0.1% tacrolimus suspension two times daily, LE/T eye drops four times daily for 1 month. Additionally, 0.1% olopatadine two times daily and preservative-free artificial tears four times daily will be used. After the first month, LE/T will be stopped, with other treatments continued for the last 5 months. Visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP) will be measured at enrollment and 1, 2, 3 and 6 months after treatment. Besides, 6 subjective symptoms and 6 clinical signs will be graded at each visit based on a 4-point scale. The primary endpoints are the change in symptoms and objective signs. Treatment failure will be recorded if extra corticosteroids were required.
