The authors describe 2 patients who presented with orbital findings and later developed vesicular lesions that were positive for varicella zoster virus and consistent with Herpes Zoster ophthalmicus. One case is the first to involve dacryoadenitis and orbital myositis preceding disseminated Herpes Zoster. In the other case, a patient developed zoster orbital syndrome leading to elevated intraocular pressure, loss of vision, and afferent pupillary defect. Canthotomy and cantholysis were required to restore vision. In both cases, the orbital syndrome developed prior to the vesicular rash. These cases highlight the need to consider Herpes Zoster ophthalmicus in patients with orbital syndrome not responding to conventional treatment. Accepted for publication February 14, 2018.
