Ophthalmological findings in AIDS. A case report.
Ophthalmological findings in AIDS include retinal cotton-wool spots, retinal haemorrhages, cytomegalovirus retinitis, conjunctival manifestations of Kaposi's sarcoma, and cranial nerve palsy. About 75% of patients with AIDS have ophthalmological abnormalities. All patients with AIDS, as well as those at high risk who have any ocular symptoms, should have a thorough ophthalmological evaluation. A case study is presented.
