dc.description.abstractA cross-sectional study was undertaken to evaluate ophthalmic lesions in human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals in eastern part of India. One hundred and seventy-five Indian patients attending one tertiary care centre in Kolkata, were included in the study. Ophthalmic manifestations were found in 29.14%. Of them 64.70% had posterior segment lesion, 23.52% had neuro-ophthalmic lesion, 19.60% had anterior segment lesion, 15.69% had adnexal lesion. Human immunodeficiency virus retinopathy was the commonest ophthalmic lesion involving 23 eyes. Cytomegalovirus retinitis was found in only 10 eyes. Ophthalmic lesions were less common in this study than reported in earlier literature in India and abroad.en_US
