  • Title: Conjunctivitis due to Phthirus pubis: a trap for the unwary.
    Author: Zvandasara T, Lam FC.
    Journal: Int J STD AIDS; 2010 Jul; 21(7):519-20. PubMed ID: 20852205.
    Abstract:
    It is not uncommon for patients to present to eye casualties with a red eye and where treatment has already been started by the general practitioner, usually in the form of antibiotic drops or ointment for presumed bacterial/viral conjunctivitis. Occasionally, the diagnosis is not simply a bacterial conjunctivitis and this can only be clarified by close ocular inspection.
