Abstract

Toxoplasma gondii invasion is probably the most common parasitosis in the world. It estimated that up to half of the world population can be infected with it. This parasite is an opportunist and rarely causes disease symptoms that are unspecific, mild and quickly disappearing, so the existence of this disease is widely ignored. However, in Poland toxoplasmosis is the most common cause of posterior segment inflammation and estimated to affect about 300,000 people. Although ophthalmologists often see old, inactive toxoplasmosis scars, an active toxoplasmic lesion can cause some difficulties in diagnosis and treatment. This article is based on the latest and relevant literature to help ophthalmologists understand, diagnose and treat this disease.
