Neurotrophic keratitis (NK) is a rare, degenerative corneal disease characterized by reduced or absent corneal sensation. Its rarity, potential asymptomatic progression, and nonspecific presentation often cause diagnostic delays. Prompt, appropriate treatment is crucial to prevent irreversible corneal damage. In this first video of the series, two experts provide an overview of NK’s pathophysiology, manifestations, and impact on quality of life, as well as how to differentiate symptoms of NK from similar diseases and testing strategies that ensure timely diagnosis and correct disease staging for informed decision-making. You’ll also gain immediate access to a downloadable point-of-care resource to help you identify and treat patients with NK in your practice.
