Vernal keratoconjunctivitis is a non-contagious, seasonal allergic disorder usually appearing during the spring or warm weather.

Vernal keratoconjunctivitis usually occurs in adolescent boys, with symptoms first appearing between the ages of three and 20. It is typically a seasonally recurring disease, not typically present perennially.

Allergic or vernal keratoconjunctivitis may result in scarring of the cornea and visual problems.
