Terson's syndrome. Report of a case with favorable outcome.

Terson's syndrome is characterized by the presence of a subarachnoid hemorrhage accompanied by retinal and vitreous hemorrhage leading to a not very favorable prognosis. We describe a case with a good outcome, probably because of a early diagnosis and medical intervention. We emphasize the routine optician's check up as very important in the evaluation of a prognosis in the cases of a suspect intracranial hemorrhage.

[Incidence of Chlamydia ocular infections in patients with conjunctivitis, at a private clinic of Uberaba, MG].

780 patients with recurrent conjunctival infections or persistent complaints of itching, burning pain, lacrimation and conjunctival hyperemia were subject to conjunctival smear examination for cytology and the presence of inclusion bodies. Two hundred and forty seven (31.7%) showed cytoplamic inclusions; 235 of them were subject to a direct specific immunofluorescency test with 90 (38.3%) positive results. The importance of the clinical manifestations and laboratory methods (direct immunofluorescence and research cytoplasmic inclusions) were considered. The patients are clients of a private clinic and have a moderate to hightor socioeconomic level.
