Resumen_ingles
Blepharokeratoconjunctivitis (BKC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the edge palpebral with possible secundary injury of the conjunctival and corneal surface. We present a 6 year-old patient who, in the routine medical checkup within her age range, is detected a decrease in the visual acuity and therefore taken to the department of ophthalmology, where she is diagnosed a BKC. The prevalence of this syndrome is unknown in our environment, on one hand because is little known and therefore underdiagnosed, and the other hand for its wide presentation range, which makes its detection even more difficult and also because it could become asymptomatic, like in our case.
