Chlamydia trachomatis was once thought to be viruses due to their reliance on the biosynthetic machinery; however they are now classified as bacteria due to the presence of a cell wall, DNA, RNA, and ribosomes (4). The organism encompasses two forms, elementary bodies and reticulate bodies.
In neonates and infants, the bacterium can cause conjunctivitis and pneumonia. Adults may also experience conjunctivitis caused by chlamydia. Trachoma is a recurrent ocular infection caused by chlamydia and is endemic in the developing world. Chlamydia trachomatis is a gram-negative bacterium that infects the columnar epithelium of the cervix, urethra, and rectum, as well as nongenital sites.
