Reference Duane/Fuchs: Textbook of Ophthalmolgy: " This has retained its name given byVon Graef, because at the spot where the infiltration is present in the cornea dense and white opacities are left which often look like sclera. Sclerosing keratitis occurs either alone ( as in this case ) or more frequently as an accompanying symptom of scleritis."
