Abstract
Sixty-four adults with maculopapular rash due to adult-type measles were examined on admission and days 7 and 14. Among the 25 patients with keratoconjunctivids at admission, 12 patients were given vitamin A (group 1) and 13 patients were not (group 2). Ten patients in group 1 and 2 patients in group 2 showed improvement at day 7. At-day 14, no patient had keratoconjunctivitis, including 18 patients without initial keratoconjunctivitis who received vitamin A.
