Adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis (AK) has a wide spectrum of duration and clinical manifestations. Conjunctival infection with adenovirus is the most common external ocular infection worldwide and is highly contagious, sometimes appearing in epidemics. After an incubation period of 2 to 14 days, symptoms of tearing and itching along with findings of conjunctival edema and hyperemia with or without conjunctival pseudomembranes can appear in 1 eye, and then in the fellow eye a few days later.
