What Causes Shingles On The Cornea Of The Eye?
I have been diagnosed with shingles on the cornea of my left eye. I fell about a month ago and broke my nose and both eyes were black for days. Could this episode be caused from the stress of these injuries. I broke my arm and cracked my kneecap when I fell.
