OverviewOnce diagnosed with AIDS 40 per cent to 70 per cent of patients will eventually exhibit signs of ocular disease. A pocket-size reference and guide, Illustrated Handbook of Ocular Disease in HIV Infection covers the range of ophthalmic complications from mild transient viral conjunctivitis to sight-threatening retinitis. It contains 40 illustrations with explanatory text that give you a complete picture of the complications you may encounter when treating HIV-infected patients. The book summarizes ocular findings in patients with HIV infection, covers opportunistic ocular infections, and provides extensive coverage of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis - the most common and sight threatening ocular condition. Additional sections cover non-infectious microangiopathy, rare retinal lesions, necrotizing herpetic retinopathies, neuro-ophthalmology, and HIV-related diseases and disorders of the external eye. Illustrated Handbook of Ocular Disease in HIV Infection serves as a quick-reference handbook for practitioners and hospital staff and a learning aid for medical and optometric students.
