Deep Sequencing of Varicella-Zoster Virus in Aqueous Humor From a Patient With Acute Retinal Necrosis Presenting With Acute Glaucoma

We report a case of acute retinal necrosis presenting with acute glaucoma preceding inflammatory signs by several days. High-throughput sequencing on aqueous humor revealed a low-level diversity in the viral genome comparable to diversity seen in cutaneous vesicles in contrast to high diversity in e...

Sumario:We report a case of acute retinal necrosis presenting with acute glaucoma preceding inflammatory signs by several days. High-throughput sequencing on aqueous humor revealed a low-level diversity in the viral genome comparable to diversity seen in cutaneous vesicles in contrast to high diversity in encephalitis.
