Quality of Life Outcomes Among Patients Being Screened for Cytomegalovirus Retinitis in Thailand.

This study found that vision-related QOL was lower in those with CMV retinitis, especially with bilateral involvement, and did not improve after treatment among those with follow-up. These findings reinforce the debilitating clinical manifestations of this disease, and support efforts for earlier screening to detect CMV retinitis before impacts on QOL have occurred.
