Methods: Clinical records of 47 VZV-AU patients (21 ZSH, 26 hZO) were retrospectively reviewed for clinical findings, medication use, and PCR using aqueous humor (AH) results.
Results: There was no significant difference in age, gender, visual acuity (VA), or intraocular pressure (IOP) between the two groups.
