Abstract:
Pediatric blepharokeratoconjunctivitis(PBKC)is a chronic condition characterized by recurrent ocular sur-face inflammation,primarily involving the eyelid margins,conjunctiva,and cornea,and predominantly affecting children and adolescents.The longstanding lack of a unified nomenclature,diagnostic criteria,and clinical definition has frequently led to misdiagnosis or delayed treatment,which can potentially result in serious complications such as corneal scarring,visual impairment,and even amblyopia.To enhance clinicians' capability for early identification of this disease,an interna-tional expert panel formulated the consensus titled "Pediatric Blepharokeratoconjunctivitis:Definition and Diagnostic Criteria".This consensus establishes a unified nomenclature,definition,and diagnostic criteria for the disease.Based on the latest clinical research findings,this article provides a systematic interpretation of these criteria,analyzes their implica-tions for clinical practice and future research,and offers important references for subsequent studies and clinical applica-tion.
