How Do You Get Syphilis In The Eye? In this informative video, we will discuss the impact of syphilis on eye health and the potential complications that can arise from this bacterial infection. Syphilis, caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum, is primarily known for its transmission through sexual contact. However, its effects can extend to various parts of the body, including the eyes, leading to a condition known as ocular syphilis. We will cover how syphilis can progress through different stages and the symptoms associated with eye involvement. Notably, eye syphilis can mimic other common eye conditions, making accurate diagnosis essential. Blood tests play a vital role in identifying this condition. Additionally, we will touch on the transmission routes of syphilis to the eyes and the risks involved, especially for pregnant individuals and those co-infected with HIV. The good news is that early diagnosis and treatment with antibiotics, particularly penicillin, can effectively manage eye syphilis and prevent serious complications.
