Abstract:
Ocular toxoplasmosis is the most common cause of posterior uveitis worldwide, with an estimated incidence of 8.4%. It follows infection by the ubiquitous parasite Toxoplasma gondii. The diagnosis is based on clinical examination looking for uveitis and most often retinochoroiditis. Microbiological confirmation is an element of positive diagnosis. The indications for treatment remain debated, whether for acute forms or recurrences.
