BERA) can be helpful for identifying the site of the lesion (cochlear/retrocochlear) [27, 28]. In early stages registration of otoacoustic emissions can make sense [29]. In cases of zoster-linked dizziness or vertigo [30, 31], detection and registration of nystagmus is important. g. with special glasses (‘Frenzel’s goggles’) in a darkened room may be sufficient.
Another study showed that the duration of VZV-DNA shedding in HZO was highly variable and age dependent. Elderly people, of 66 years or older, had a significantly more prolonged duration of VZV-DNA presence in the conjunctival swabs than patients who were younger than 66 years [8]. HZO represents reactivated VZV that travels down the ophthalmic nerve ganglion, taking 3–4 days to reach the nerve endings. Because the nasociliary branch innervates both the tip and the homolateral side of the nose as well as the cornea, most serious ocular involvement will develop if this branch is affected.
