Core Tip Pseudopemphigoid in the context of chronic cicatricial conjunctivitis mimicking mucous membrane pemphigoid is a disease with terminology that has continuously evolved since its inception. Recent understanding of the ophthalmological and systemic manifestations of pseudopemphigoid as caused by topical drugs and the pemphigus disease demonstrates that significantly decreased vision and/or increased mortality due to paraneoplastic associations may result. Proper diagnosis and treatment of the underlying disease is therefore critical in order to provide maximal care to the patient.
