Abstract
The eyes of 39 patients who had received allogenic renal transplants were examined for signs of disease. Nine (23%) had early posterior subcapsular cataracts, two (5%) developed acute cytomegalovirus retinitis, and one developed steroid-induced glaucoma. The lesions which were found were all attributable to the immunosuppressive drug therapy. Thirty-five (87%) had detectable complement-fixing antibodies to cytomegalovirus.Entities:
