The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and clinical characteristics to diagnose ocular cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. The technical factors were assessed by the outcomes of the qPCR assay at five institutions in Japan using the WHO International Standard of cytomegalovirus. The clinical factors were assessed by examining the aqueous humor samples of 197 eyes of 197 consecutive patients suspected of CMV using the receiver operating characteristics (ROCs). All of the institutions had excellent detection efficacy, although the copy number ranged from 0.82 to 4.66 copies/IU. In the clinical samples, CMV was detected in 51 eyes, and the amount of CMV DNA was significantly higher for CMV retinitis. In corneal diseases, the amount of CMV DNA was significantly associated with frequency of recurrences and IOP elevations. The sensitivity and specificity of qPCR for the diagnosis was 90.0 and 98.7%, respectively. For the corneal and anterior uveitis types of CMV diseases, the area under the curve (AUC) of qPCR was 0.95 and 0.96, followed by frequency of recurrences with AUC of 0.89 and 0.82, and IOP elevations with AUC of 0.78 and 0.76. Unclassified cytomegalovirus detection, which did not meet diagnostic criteria of CMV corneal endotheliitis, anterior uveitis, or retinitis, was 4.6%, and it was significantly associated with corneal diseases and history of corneal transplantation. qPCR with standardization is specific and accurate; however, the inclusion and knowledge of the clinical characteristics improve the diagnostic efficacy.
