abstract: By typing of 90 patients with ocular pathology (uveitis, diseases of optic nerve, Eale's disease, pseudo-tumor cerebri) the authors have found a constant and significant increase in the frequency of H.L.A. A2 especially in uveitis by streptococcus. However, a frequency of H.L.A. B27 as elevated as in previous publications was not found--but the parallelism: H.L.A. B27--ankylosing spondylitis was always found. Finally, the authors emphasized the haplotype H.L.A. A2 H.L.A. B5 in two cases of pseudo-tumor cerebri.
