title: Eye histoplasmosis.
abstract: Mainly in the endemic area, eye histo strikes healthy adults in their 30's and 40's. They note distortion and blurring of central vision of 1 eye. Such patients can tell when they are having this muculopathy before the ophthalmologist is able to detect any damage. Later a hemorrhagic maculopathy may develop. The diagnosis of eye histo is made by the characteristic eye picture. To bring you up to data about this common but little known entity, we will use a question and answer format.
