Cytomegalovirus retinitis is the most common ocular opportunistic infection in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus and remains a significant cause of visual loss in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Drugs are now available to treat this condition and recent advances in delivery techniques offer promising alternatives

Therapeutic developments in cytomegalovirus retinitis
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2000The incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in AIDS has declined significantly due to the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). However, patients with HIV, especially those failing HAART, may still suffer with CMV retinitis, which can lead to significant loss of vision and blindness. Ganciclovir has traditionally been considered the

Therapy and prevention of cytomegalovirus retinitis
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2001Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has redefined the natural history of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis. Once a major cause of blindness in AIDS patients, its incidence has plummeted and its clinical course has been altered. The potential of HAART for immunologic restoration should guide treatment decisions, and may ultimately lead to the ...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis is a disease of advanced immunosuppression that occurs almost exclusively in patients with CD4+ counts of < or =50 cells/mm3. Therefore, this disease usually presents in patients who have already been diagnosed with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The rate of progression of untreated CMV retinitis is variable.
