Viral particles in the conjunctiva of a patient with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome
Abstract
Conjunctival biopsy from a 39-year-old man with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome revealed the presence of herpes virus particles by electron microscopy. The finding of herpes virus particles in the conjunctiva may be of prognostic significance in documenting the presence of systemic viral infection.
