- W2401128269 abstract "Background:Ocular toxoplasmosis is the commonest cause of infectious posterior uveitis the world over.. Ocular symptoms may present years after the systemic infection and the outcome depends on the interaction of many factors. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of presumed ocular toxoplasmosis amongst patients attending the eye clinic of a tertiary hospital. Materials and Methods:This was a retrospective study of 30 patients seen in the eye clinic of University of Uyo Teaching Hospital between January 2009 and December 2011. Demographic information, presenting and final visual acuity, presenting complaints, ocular findings and drug treatment were extracted from the clinical notes, and the data obtained was analyzed. Results: A total of 30 (0.28%) patients out of 10,595consecutive patients seen in the UUTH eye clinic. More women were affected (56.7%) than men (43.3%). The most affected age group was (41-50) years. The commonest complaint was diminution of vision. Final visual acuity was closely related to the site of the lesion on the retina. Conclusion: The prevalence of ocular toxoplasmosis (0.28%) was lower than that observed in other parts of the country. There is need to investigate the seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in the general population, particularly in those at risk." @default.
