Genetic analysis of varicella-zoster virus in the aqueous humor in uveitis with severe hyphema

Abstract Background Genetic variations have been identified in the genome of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) strains using vesicle fluid, varicella scabs and throat swab samples. We report a rare case of VZV-associated uveitis with severe hyphema, which was immediately diagnosed by polymerase chain rea...
