Other infections of the choroid and retina. Toxoplasmosis, histoplasmosis, Lyme disease, syphilis, tuberculosis, and ocular toxocariasis.

The major clinical infectious syndromes involving the retina and choroid are discussed. Means for successful diagnosis and treatment are presented, as well as the major complications. This work emphasizes the need to identify the infectious nature of these syndromes in order to avoid the all-too-common pitfall of just treating all cases of uveitis with steroids alone.
