VIRAL RETINITIS

Clinical Handbook on Viral Retinitis: Diagnosis, Differentials, and Treatment is a comprehensive, practical guide for ophthalmologists managing one of the most vision-threatening infectious retinal emergencies.

Viral retinitis-including CMV retinitis, Acute Retinal Necrosis (ARN), and Progressive Outer Retinal Necrosis (PORN)-requires rapid recognition and timely intervention to prevent irreversible blindness. This handbook offers a structured approach to clinical diagnosis, imaging interpretation, laboratory confirmation, and evidence-based antiviral treatment strategies.

Designed for practicing ophthalmologists, retina specialists, and postgraduate trainees, this handbook bridges the gap between theory and bedside decision-making-emphasizing the principle that in viral retinitis, "Time is Vision."
