Ocular cysticercosis--a review of 25 cases.

OBJECTIVE
To study the clinical manifestations, management and outcome of cases of ocular cysticercosis in India.


METHODS
Retrospective analysis of records of patients presenting to the ophthalmology clinics, with cysticercosis, during years 1990-98.


RESULTS
A total of 25 patients had ocular cysticercosis, during the period studied. Majority could be surgically removed without residual effects. However four patients (16%) had no useful vision left in the involved eye.


CONCLUSION
Cysticercosis is still endemic in India and contributes to preventable blindness. Improving sanitation and health awareness are the only ways to prevent this infection.
