متن کاملProgressive subretinal fibrosis and multifocal granulomatous chorioretinitis.
We describe a case of progressive subretinal fibrosis and multifocal chorioretinitis along with its findings on both fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography. The progressive subretinal fibrosis syndrome is a severe subset of multifocal choroiditis. The clustering of lesions around the nerve optic head may mean that the disease is spread through the flow in and out of the eye around the op...

Sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) is a rare bilateral, diffuse granulomatous panuveitis that occurs following penetrating trauma or intraocular surgery to one eye, the exciting eye. The fellow non-traumatized sympathizing eye also shows similar inflammatory response usually with mutton-fat KPs suggesting involvement of autoimmune response [1]. Though the time from ocular injury to onset of SO was sai...
