Here we present a case report of a 32-year-old man with MPXV infection who developed keratoconjunctivitis and Wessley immune ring with no identifiable cause other than ocular involvement by MPXV. We highlight the need of ophthalmologists exploring any ocular symptoms in MPXV-infected individuals. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. View on Web
