Abstract
- The Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome(AIDS) is defined as a reliably diagnosed disease that is at least moderately indicative of an underlying cellular immunodeficiency in a person who has no known cause of underlying cellular immunodeficiency. The AIDS is caused by the human T-lymphotropic virus type III. We report here on a 32-year-old Korean male with AIDS. Detailed ophthalmic examinations were done and several cottonwool spots were found in both eyes. Other ocular findings of AIDS were not seen in this patient.
