Actual (reported)Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the major causes of sexually transmitted disease and also the leading infectious cause of blindness in the world.Treatment of C. trachomatis eye infection has involved for a long time. The efficacy of single dose azithromycin has already been demonstrated as effective in the treatment of both trachoma and adult inclusion conjunctivitis.However, in our clinical experience, some patients of chlamydial conjunctivitis may require augmented single dose azithromycin treatments before C. trachomatis is eradicated. In this way, we would like to known the efficacy of single dose and augmented single dose azithromycin in the treatment of chlamydial conjunctivitis.

Actual (reported)Total Number of Participants With Negative Chlamydia Direct Fluorescent Antibody (DFA) Test Results After Oral Azithromycin Treatments
We performed direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) tests for Chlamydia by swabbing across the lower and upper tarsal conjunctiva four times after topical application of 0.5% proparacaine. All of the DFA tests were examined by the same experienced microbiologist who was masked to the identities and clinical conditions of the patients. Each DFA slide was read under a fluorescent microscope and was observed for discrete fluorescent chlamydial elementary bodies (EBs).The DFA test was considered positive if above 10 EBs were counted per high-power field.
