Among the temporary skin ecto-parasites, Demodex folliculorum is a worm-like mite that infests hair follicles in various mammals including man. Rosacea is a common skin disorder that may occur in adults of all ethnic backgrounds, but is most commonly diagnosed in individuals with fair skin. Ocular rosacea may present independently or in association with cutaneous subtypes of rosacea. This study clarified the correlation between ocular rosacea and demodicosis folliculorum in family patients; two females of them were superimposed with secondary bacterial infection. The patients acquired in zoonotic infestation from their pet dog. The pet dog was sent to the Governmental Veterinary Hospital at Abbassia and was treated with Ivermectin®. Specific ocular infections often required etiological diagnosis of combined consultant ophthalmology and microbiology
