Tear Cytokine Profiling in Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis Identifies Immune Signatures Associated with Disease Severity

2026-02-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a chronic pediatric ocular allergic disease that can progress from seasonal to persistent inflammation with vision-threatening complications. While Th2 mechanisms are implicated, immune correlates of disease severity remain unclear. <h4>Methods: </h4>: Tear samples from VKC patients (moderate intermittent and moderate persistent) and healthy controls were...
