[Ocular troubles and HIV/AIDS]
Abstract
AIDS: People living with HIV/AIDS are more prone to ocular conditions due to their weakened immune systems. The symptoms of HIV-related ocular conditions, such as cotton wool spots from cytomegalovirus infections, ocular hemorrhage, Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), keratitis, conjunctivitis, ocular toxoplasmosis, lymphoma, and herpes Zoster, are presented. References are provided for people with ocular problems.
