AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome)is the late stage of HIV infection where the human immune system is severely damaged and not able to fight diseases like cancer and other infections. One of the infections is retinitis that is caused by Cytomegalovirus or Toxoplasma infection, which can be happened if CD4 counts are decreased. Retinitis can cause blindness, which lower the quality of life. Aim: To know the relation between CD4 counts and retinitis.
