Abstract
The immunocompromised state of an individual can give rise to many devastating opportunistic diseases. Outer retina toxoplasmosis is such an example, which is seen mainly in immunocompromised patients. Rapid and precise diagnosis is of utmost importance in treating and preventing complications of the disease. Here we report a rare presentation of outer retinal toxoplasmosis in a patient, immunocompromised due to chemotherapy.
