摘要：
Three (15%) of 20 survivors of the 1995 Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo enrolled in a follow-up study and 1 other survivor developed ocular manifestations after being asymptomatic for 1 month. Patients complained of ocular pain, photophobia, hyperlacrimation, and loss of visual acuity. Ocular examination revealed uveitis in all 4 patients. All patients improved with a topical treatment of 1% atropine and steroids.
