title: AIDS and the eyes.
abstract: The eye is affected in 50-75% of adult AIDS patients. This rate of ocular involvement is much higher than that in symptom-free HIV-seropositive patients, and seems to increase in incidence with severity of disease. These observations indicate that regular screening of HIV-positive patients is warranted to allow early identification of potential vision and life threatening disease.
