Real-time polymerase chain reaction in recurrent cytomegalovirus anterior uveitis
Purpose: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been reported to cause anterior uveitis in the immunocompetent people. Recurrence of this viral uveitis poses a mangement dilemma. With real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR), it is possible to confirm the clinical diagnosis. We report a case of recurrent CMV ant...
