Botulism and Its Ophthalmic Lesions as Determined by Research With the Toxin of Clostridium Botulinum

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The subject of botulism has never received due consideration or study on the part of ophthalmologists, although recognition of the syndrome which involves the globe and its adnexa, is paramount in the clinical diagnosis of the disease. Strange to say most of the data relative to the ocular findings in botulism have been furnished by others than ophthalmologists. On this subject, Lancaster's - paper before this Society in 1916 is the only discussion of any extent or detail that has appeared in American ophthalmic literature. A brief resumé of the history and present status of the subject will serve as a prelude to the findings as discussed in this paper.
