Answer to Question 1

Herpetic whitlow usually occurs on the fingertips and can resemble a bacterial infection or warts. Herpes gladiatorum is most frequently found in athletes who participate in contact sports. The appearance of herpes zoster is usually down a single dermatome. Herpes simplex is usually seen orally or on the genitals.

Answer to Question 2

Risk factors for the development of keratoconus include ocular allergies, rigid contact lens wear, and vigorous eye rubbing. Sun exposure, herpes simplex virus, and dry eyes are not risk factors for this disorder.
