What is Systemic Parasitic Infections and the Eye about?

Systemic parasitic infections are common worldwide, and some may have ocular manifestations. Many parasitic infections other than toxoplasmosis are unusual in temperate climates and so may be unfamiliar to ophthalmologists and other clinicians practicing in the United States or Europe, for example, but familiar to clinicians in tropical regions. Systemic infections discussed in this chapter include those caused by protozoa (e.g., microsporidiosis, toxoplasmosis, malaria), nematodes, also called roundworms (e.g., toxocariasis, loaiasis, onchocerciasis), cestodes such as tapeworms (e.g., cysticercosis), trematodes, also called flukes (e.g., schistosomiasis), ectoparasitic infections such as myiasis, and others. Ocular manifestations of these various infections are highlighted.
