Abstract

Psoriasis is a common skin disease, which is associated with multiple extracutaneous manifestations. This article presents a case report of a rare ocular manifestation of psoriasis; psoriasis-associated keratitis. In a 37-year-old man we could show that systemic immunomodulatory therapy led to a rapid improvement of the ocular symptoms.
