Cytomegalovirus as a cause of recurrent corneal endotheliitis in the Canadian population.

Cytomegalovirus is an uncommon but clinically significant cause of corneal endotheliitis that must be considered in the differential diagnosis of corneal endotheliitis, even in the immunocompetent population. Our results support prior findings that this entity responds robustly to oral valganciclovir and demonstrate for the first time the efficacy of chronic low-dose antiviral maintenance therapy.
