31. • Chlamydia conjunctivitis
• Conjunctivitis is the most common neonatal manifestation of C. Trachomatis
infection.
• -The incubation period is 5-14 days after birth. Presentation before 5 - 14 days is
rare, but has occurred with premature rupture of membranes.
• -Initially the disease presents as watery discharge that becomes purulent.
• -This can (but does not always) progress to marked swelling of eyelids with red and
thickened conjunctiva (chemosis).
• -A pseudomembrane may form over the conjunctiva, which can become friable,
resulting in bloody discharge.
• -A membrane of granulation tissue may form after about two weeks if the
condition is left untreated.
• -Untrested infection may last for months and cause corneal and conjunctival
scarring.
• -N. Gonorrhea conjunctivitis presents earlier and progresses more rapidly, but
must be considered in the differential diagnosis.

a result of astigmatism secondary to corneal
