Abstract
The authors describe a new method for grading the extent and severity of ocular involvement in patients with SJS and demonstrate that the severity of ocular involvement is correlated significantly with the final visual outcome. This new grading system provides a more objective method for evaluating SJS patients and may be adapted for use in other cicatricial ocular surface diseases.
