Uveitis with allergy to candidin.
By skin testing, 21 patients with uveitis were more reactive to Candida extracts than a control group of patients during the same 15-year follow-up period. Skin testing with candidin induced an obvious and transient change of the course of the ocular disease in 19 patients and led to systemic symptoms in 15 patients; 11 were atopic, 17 had intermediate uveitis. Antifungal treatment and/or desensitization improved the ocular condition in 16 patients. The real pathogeny of these uveitides remains hypothetical.
