title: [Inflammatory eye changes in the mouse caused by herpesvirus. Changes caused by the cytopathogenic effect. An animal model].
abstract: The reproducible inflammatory changes caused by infection with herpes simplex virus (Eidolon-Virus) in the anterior segment in mice represent a useful model. They are very similar to severe inflammation of the eye, as seen in herpes simplex infection. The method used by the authors to damage the corneal epithelium with a local anesthetic is similar to human pathology, in which a disturbance of the protective function of the corneal epithelium also facilitates infection by herpes simplex virus as well. The changes described are a starting point for further investigations.
