Abstract

A case of ophthalmic toxocariasis in a child with visceral form in 4.5 years after arresting of the active process is described. The eye disease was detected in the stage of the complications development (retinal detachment). Toxocariasis etiology was established on the basis of anamnestic (geophagy, visceral toxocariasis), clinical (granulomatous chorioretinitis) and laboratory findings (presence of antibodies to Toxocara in blood serum and subretinal fluid in dilution 1:400). The children with visceral form of toxocariasis need to be followed-up by ophthalmologist on a regular basis for early detection of possible eye disease.
