Abstract
Five patients had a clinical diagnosis of nematode endophthalmitis and had both a serum and vitreous titer for Toxocara antibody. All five patients had a vitreous titer that was equal to or greater than the serum titer. Serum and vitreous obtained from ten other patients who had no evidence of endophthalmitis did not show this correlation. This study provides the clinician with a further understanding of the meaning of a positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay titer as well as an additional area for analysis in selected patients with ocular inflammation.
