Ocular candidiasis in ornamental ducks.
This paper describes an outbreak of ocular candidiasis in ornamental ducks kept privately in Norfolk. Ocular signs included small lesions on the nictitating membrane, keratitis and intraocular infection. A method of successful treatment is given and attention is drawn to the importance of an abnormal environment in the pathogenesis of this condition.
