There are three forms of vernal conjunctivitis:
1) Palpebral form:
·usually upper tarsal conjunctiva of both eyes is involved.
·Hard, flat-topped papillae arranged in “cobblestone” or “pavement stone” fashion.
·Ropy discharge.
2) Bulbar form:
·Dusky red triangular conjestion of bulbar conjuntiva.
·Gelatinous limbal membrane.
·Discrete whitish raised dots along the limbus (Tranta’s spots).
3) Mixed form: combines both features of palpebral and bulbar forms.
