Abstract
A murine model of zosteriform spread of herpes simplex virus to the eye is reported. Viral antigens were demonstrated by a peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique in the trigeminal ganglion, iris, ciliary body, and cornea. The histology suggested a spontaneous bacterial superinfection during the later stages of the herpetic disease of the cornea. The relevance to human disease is discussed.Entities:
