Representative laser in vivo confocal microscopy images of corneal subbasal nerves (black arrows) in the normal healthy eye (A) and in a herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) affected eye (B) and contralateral eye (C) of the same patient. Note the significant decrease of subbasal nerves in both affected and contralateral eye of HZO patient as well as an increase of dendritic-form immune cells in both eyes of HZO patient (black arrow head).
