- The study aimed to analyze and compare the occurrence of eye-related changes in HIV-infected patients before and after they started highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) at a hospital in Zagreb.
- It included 85 patients, examining their eye health in two distinct periods: before (1995-1997) and after HAART (1998-2000), finding a significant decrease in mortality rates and ophthalmic issues after starting HAART.
- Notable results included a drop in CMV retinitis episodes and improved visual acuity among patients treated during the HAART era, highlighting HAART's effectiveness in preserving patients' eye health.
