Of 171 available strains of Herpesvirus hominis isolated in this laboratory during the period 1950 to 1975, 166 could be readily typed as HV-1 or HV-2 by indirect immunofluorescence, while 5 have so far been untypable. Of 72 typable isolates from genitalia and nearby skin, all were HV-2. Of 81 typable isolates from mouth, eye or skin above the waist, 68(84%) were HV-1 and 13(16%) were HV-2. Of isolates from the eye only, 46 of 54(87%) were HV-1, 7(13%) were HV-2, and 1 could not be typed. When sera were available for herpesvirus antibody titrations, the pattern of antibody response tended to match the type of isolate. Clinical findings of 5 of the individuals with ocular herpes caused by HV-2 have been reviewed. The HV-2 infections appeared to be severe, typical herpetic keratoconjunctivitis, sometimes with deep infiltrates and stromal involvement.
