Overview

Acute retinal necrosis is usually caused by reactivation of latent viruses, including Herpes simplex virus 1 & 2, Varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, and Epstein-Barr virus.

Causes

Acute retinal necrosis (ARN) is usually caused by the reactivation of the following pathogenic viruses in the Herpesviridae family:[1][2][3][4][5][6]

HSV-2 is usually the cause of ARN in individuals younger than 25 years.
