The Editor,
Journal of the All-India Ophthalmological Society, 21, Queens Road, Bombay-1.
Dear Sir.
In reference to the comments made by Dr. Somerset in the Journal of the All-India Ophthalmological Society of April 1954 on our paper `A New Manifestation of the Oculo-Glandular Syndrome' published in January 1954, I would like to mention the following few facts which will convince that our cases were quite different from those of supeficial punctate keratitis.
In our series all the cases were thoroughly examined and on several occasions the examination included biomicroscopy also: and on the strength of this examination we have stated in our paper that the cornea remains clear throughout the ailment. We have confirmed this even after Maj. Scmersett's letter in the journal. We do come across a number of cases of superficial punctate keratitis with enlargement of the preauricular gland and with the aid of bicmicroscopy it is not possible to miss them. These cases are being collected, investigated and recorded separately in our department and a separate report of these cases may be published at a later date.
