[Criteria for clinical recovery in ocular tuberculosis]. / Kriterii klinicheskogo islecheniia tuberkuleza glaz.

The paper analyzes the results of examination of 314 patients with ocular tuberculosis, 120 of them had quiescent tuberculosis. Thirty one patients underwent tuberculin tests; 122 had fluorescence angiography and photo stress test; 120, lacrimal crystallography. To determine the degree of recovery requires a complex of criteria: neither clinical signs of active tuberculous inflammation in the retina and medium of the eye, no clinical, X-ray, and laboratory manifestations of tuberculosis of other sites, or a focal and much significant overall response to tuberculin in doses of 2 TE and 50 TE. If there are contraindications to tuberculin tests, a conclusion on recovery should be made by using fluorescence angiography of the fundus of the eye, crystallography of the tear and/or photo stress test in combination with blood biochemical and immunological studies.
