title: Allergic conjunctivitis due to diazepam.
abstract: The author reports on four patients, all women, who developed conjunctival hypersensitivity during diazepam treatment. This hypersensitivity is self-limited after diazepam treatment is discontinued. The author suggests that conjunctival hypersensitivity could be mistakenly attributed to contact lens irritation rather than to diazepam.
