Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Congenital Rubella affects the eye in many ways. Ocular effects can be found in the lens, retina, ciliary body and cornea. Ocular manifestations of the Congenital Rubella Syndrome are congenital cataracts, microphthalmos, pigmentary retinopathy, strabismus, and glaucoma. While surgical and medical treatment is utilized for these conditions, the need for prevention is considered critical. The responsibility of health care providers to educate the public remains the key. |
