The use of infrared thermovision to examine a patient with infiltrative orbitopathy and combined immunodeficiency is described. In addition to a thermic quantification of infiltrated areas of the eyes and face, it proved possible, with dynamic measurement, to define exactly the extent of pathologically increased temperatures. Other applications of infrared thermovision in ophthalmology are discussed.
