摘　　要：·AIM:To report ocular symptoms,funduscopic findings and demographic distribution of ocular toxoplasmosis in Iran·METHODS:In this cross-sectional study,a total of 40 patients with ocular toxoplasmosis (24 female,16 male) were enrolled.The distribution of symptoms and funduscopic findings were studied.·RESULTS:The patients’ age was in the range of 13-52 with the most common age of 19 years old.Twenty-four patients were female (60.0%).The most common presenting sign was visual loss.There was anterior chamber (AC) inflammation in 23 patients (57.5%).Vitritis was presented in 36 patients (90.0%).In 35 patients (87.5%),the retinal lesion was central.In patients with peripheral lesion,3 patients (60.0%) had flashing vs 12.5% chance of flashing in all patients.Older patients had larger lesion (P =0.04).·CONCLUSION:Ocular toxoplasmosis substantially varies among patients with different age,gender,status of immunity,site of lesion and other undetermined factors.One of ocular symptoms,flashing,may necessitate a more precise peripheral fundus examination.··AIM:To report ocular symptoms,funduscopic findings and demographic distribution of ocular toxoplasmosis in Iran·METHODS:In this cross-sectional study,a total of 40 patients with ocular toxoplasmosis (24 female,16 male) were enrolled.The distribution of symptoms and funduscopic findings were studied.·RESULTS:The patients' age was in the range of 13-52 with the most common age of 19 years old.Twenty-four patients were female (60.0%).The most common presenting sign was visual loss.There was anterior chamber (AC) inflammation in 23 patients (57.5%).Vitritis was presented in 36 patients (90.0%).In 35 patients (87.5%),the retinal lesion was central.In patients with peripheral lesion,3 patients (60.0%) had flashing vs 12.5% chance of flashing in all patients.Older patients had larger lesion (P =0.04).·CONCLUSION:Ocular toxoplasmosis substantially varies among patients with different age,gender,status of immunity,site of lesion and other undetermined factors.One of ocular symptoms,flashing,may necessitate a more precise peripheral fundus examination.·
