Objective:To explore the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine fumigation combined with antiviral drugs in the treatment of herpes simplex keratitis.Methods:A total of 90 patients with herpes simplex keratitis who were treated in our hospital from May 2023 to January 2024 were selected.The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the random differentiation method,with 45 patients in each group.The control group was treated with antiviral drugs,while the observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine fumigation on the basis of the above.The treatment effect,disappearance time of symptoms and signs and improvement of visual acuity were compared between the two groups.Results:The total effective rate of treatment in the observation group was 97.78%,which was higher than 84.44%in the control group(P<0.05).The congestion and detumescence time,ulcer healing time and stimulation disappearance time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).The improvement of visual acuity in the observation group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:For herpes simplex keratitis,the combination of traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and antiviral drugs is more effective,which can relieve clinical symptoms and improve patients'vision.
