Case series of ocular involvement due to dengue. First reported cases in Guatemala.
CONCLUSION: It is necessary to consider dengue as an important differential diagnosis in an endemic country such as Guatemala. There are a large number of ocular manifestations due to direct involvement, as well as by an immune system reaction, and thus avoid considering the different ocular manifestations as idiopathic, or due to a different condition.
