@ Barbara Greenwood Now that you tell us that the blank contains the patient's name, the sentence makes more sense. Thanks.
Barbara Greenwood (asker) Oct 13, 2010:
The patient was diagnosed with herpes zoster of the trigeminal branch. Unfortunately, this sentence, which I provided in its entirety (witht the exclusion of the actual patient name) is the only reference to Augenmitbeteiligung, so there is no further context for that. Sorry there's not more and thank you for your help!
casper (X) Oct 13, 2010:
@ Barbara Greenwood a) The first sentence, as you have provided, doesn't convey anything meaningful to me. Could you provide the complete sentence, please?
b) What was the patient suffering from?
c) What are your thoughts on the translation?

that is, associated involvement of the eye(s), is a possible translation.

More context would be more than welcome.

agree MMUlr : yes - and the details on herpes/viral infection were most relevant: see e.g. http://www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/internalmedicine/education_prog... / :-) simple Googling: "ocular involvement" herpes site:.edu (university pages only)

Thank you, MMUlr. And btw, I always wonder how you come up with contextually relevant web references each time. // Thank you very much for sharing.
agree British Diana : Or "sight-threatening ocular complications" as on the paper MMUlr cites
