Book excerpt: As the AIDS epidemic continues to grow and patients live longer, it will be increasingly challenging for physicians to treat the many opportunistic infections that accompany AIDS. Eye doctors must sometimes make an initial diagnosis of AIDS, but most of the time they are asked to treat the ocular manifestations of AIDS-related infections. The challenge that many ophthalmologists and optometrists face is composed of three kinds of identifications. They must recognize and treat possible sight-threatening conditions, they must be able to determine unusual displays of known organisms; and they must be able to find manifestations that have never been described or have not been thought to occur in patients with AIDS. Clinical and autopsy studies show that up to 75% of patients with AIDS will have ocular findings. All parts of the visual system can be affected by AIDS. Ocular involvement, it is appropiated for primary and secondary care eye doctors to be knowledgeable concerning this condition. This review is intended to describe the most common ophthalmic manifestations of HIV infection.

Book excerpt: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a lentivirus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The virus either directly eliminates infected cells, indirectly causes the apoptosis of unifected cells, or significantly decreases the surviving cells' ability to fight infection. It is this multifactorial mechanism of action that causes the severe immunosuppression and subsequent opportunistic inffection that is pathognomonic for HIV/AIDS. It is also the reason HIV is able to affect all bodily systems, including the eye. Ocular manifestations of HIV infected patients can range in severity from mild blepharitis to vision threatening cytomegalovirus retinitis. However, if detected at an early stage, advancements in AIDS' therapeutic management have made prevention of vision loss very likely. This is evident in the fact that industrialized countries (Such as America) are experiencing a significant decrease in the prevalence of HIV-related vision loss among patients who receive prompt treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: STUDY OF OCULAR MANIFESTATIONS IN HIV/AIDS CHILDREN IN HIGHLY ACTIVE ANTI RETROVIRAL THERAPY (HAART) ERA FROM BIKANER, NORTHWESTERN INDIAAbstract: Background: Human Immune deficiency Virus (HIV) has the capability to affect every organ system in the body. Ocular manifestations reflect systemic disease and may be the first sign of disseminated infection. This prospective study was executed to determine the spectrum of ocular manifestations in HIV positive children in Highly Active Anti Retroviral Therapy [HAART] era and to establish their correlation with CD4+Tcells counts and stage of the disease.Method: This study enrolled 300 HIV positive children from February 2015 to December 2017. These children were evaluated, irrespective of the presence or absence of ocular symptoms and their treatment status. The ocular examination protocol included Visual Acuity [VA] Testing, color vision testing, ocular motility assessment, eye lid and adnexal examination, complete anterior and posterior segment examination. Results: Ocular lesions were observed in 50.3% (151/300) children. Conjuctival microvasculopathy being the commonest finding seen in 9% (27/300) children followed by retinal microvasculopathy [7.3% (22/300)] and trichomegaly [6.3% (19/300)]. Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus and Cytomegalo virus retinitis were observed in 1.33% and 1% children respectively. In this study 78.33% (235/300) children were on HAART. At the time of inclusion in the study, CD4+cell counts ranged from 9 to 1838 cells/mm3 [meanu00b1SD=375.6u00b1249 cells/mm3]. In the study, 28 children had CD4+cell counts u2264100/mm3, in whom 82.14% had ocular findings, while 71 children had CD4+cell count u2265500/mm3 in whom only 35.21% children had ocular findings. The association between low CD4+cell counts and ocular findings was statistically significant [pu22640.0001]. Conclusion: The pattern and severity of ocular manifestations was different than previous reports. Probably HAART has changed the pattern and severity of HIV related eye disease. Low CD4+cell count and advanced stage of disease are the strong predictors of ocular involvement.
