Resumen
TOLEDO GONZALEZ, Yusimik et al. Ocular toxoplasmosis. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2010, vol.23, suppl.2, pp. 812-826. ISSN 0864-2176.
The ocular toxoplasmosis is an illness caused by Toxoplasma gondii parasite. It is the most frequent cause in posterior uveitis, and it spreads worldwide since at least 500 million people are infected in the entire world, causing decrease of vision and blindness in many of them. This is the reason why we made a literature review, the current situation worldwide, the history, the prevention, the clinical forms and the control of toxoplasmosis. Other interesting aspects were the channel of transmission, the hosts (intermediary and final) and the most remarkable clinical manifestations.
