Electron Microscope Observation of Herpes-like Particles in the Iris

Detection of herpes simplex virus in pseudoexfoliation syndrome and exfoliation glaucoma

“…1997). In addition, herpes‐like particles have been observed, using electron microscopy, in iris tissue following an episode of acute iridocyclitis (Witmer & Iwamoto 1968). These findings support the theory that HSV may remain in intraocular tissues for a long time after the active stage of infection.…”

Electron Microscopic Demonstration of Virus Particles in Human Herpes Simplex Keratitis*

“…The presence in the corneal stroma of particles which are apparently herpes simplex virus was demonstrated in an electron microscopic investigation of human chronic herpetic keratitis (3), and the actual spread of sich particles to the corneal stroma (18) and to corneal nerves (4) was shown in inoculation experiments on rabbits. The presence of herpes-like particles in the iris was shown in connection with kerato-iritis (21).…”

Management and Treatment of Herpes Simplex Keratitis

“…The experience of HSK in post-transplant immuno-suppressed patients suggests that the condition may be more common and more serious than in immunocompetent individuals. An initial report [23] suggested that HSK may be similarly influenced in patients with AIDS. However, the numbers of cases were limited and no control group was used.…”
