However extraocular gaze palsy in association with herpes zoster infection is extremely rare. Objective: We presented here a patient who had herpes zoster ophthalmicus with sixth cranial nerve palsy. Case: The sixty year old patient had suffered from left retroorbital pain, conjunctival congestion and rashes on the left forehead and the nose and developed ipsilateral sixth cranial nerve palsy. Result: Herpes zoster virus infection should be taken into consideration in patients with extraocular paralysis and early treatment may prevent such complications.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHerpes Zoster OphthalmicusSixth Cranial Nerve PalsyEruptionArticle145350352N/AWOS:000217492700007
