Overview
Conjunctivitis is an ancient disease, and was first described by S.T. Quellmaz.[1] In 1881, Crédé introduced 2% silver nitrate for the first time as a prophylaxis treatment method for conjunctivitis in the newborns in Leipzig.[2]
Historical Perspective
- In 1750, neonatal conjunctivitis (ophthalmia neonatorum) was first described by S.T. Quellmaz.[1]
- In 1881, Crédé introduced 2% silver nitrate for the first time as a prophylaxis treatment method for conjunctivitis in the newborns in Leipzig.[2]
- In 1883, Koch discovered the bacilli of two different forms of infectious conjunctivitis or Egyptian ophthalmia.
- In 1886, Weeks discovered the same organism to be the cause of pink eye.[3]
- In 1953, Micheal Hogan first described the association between atopic dermatitis and conjunctival inflammation.[4]
- In 1963, Thygeson and Kimura first described superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis as a chronic, localized, filamentary conjunctivitis, and later this condition was given its name, superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis, by Theodore.[5]
- In 1968, Tenzel and Corwin were the first to discover the association between thyroid abnormalities and development of superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.[6]
- In 1969, acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis was first described as occurring in Ghana.[7]
- Between 1981-2003, four major epidemics of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis had occurred in the Western Hemisphere.[8]
- In 2006, an epidemic acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (involving more than 200,000 people) was reported as occurring in Brazil.[9]
