[A case of hand, foot and mouth disease in adults who first diagnosed with conjunctivitis].

A 34-year-old female presented to the doctor with chief complaint of redness in both eyes for 1 week. The slit lamp examination showed slight eyelid swelling, water-like discharge in the conjunctival sac of the lower eyelid, conjunctival follicles, gray-white pseudomembrane and small lamellar subconjunctival hemorrhage on the lower palpebral conjunctiva. Physical examination showed two erythematous macules(size 5 mm×6 mm) on the left palm. One erythematous macule(size 4 mm×5 mm) was seen on the right palm. Multiple erosions were located in the skin of upper and lower lips, oral cavity and the gingival mucosa. A diagnosis of hand, foot and mouth disease was made following by dermatological consultation. After topical antiviral and steroids treatment, the disease quickly relieved.(Chin J Ophthalmol, 2021, 57: 139-141).
