While rosacea is a common dermatologic condition, ocular rosacea is sometimes evident either with cutaneous rosacea or occasionally by itself. Manifesting with such varied symptoms as dry eye, Meibomian gland dysfunction, and corneal erosion, ocular rosacea can be confused with a multitude of other diseases.
