A case of vasculitis, retinitis and macular neurosensory detachment presenting post typhoid fever
Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 4 - Trang 1-3 - 2014
Ocular and extraocular immune-mediated phenomena are known to occur following febrile illness. Vasculitis, retinitis and neurosensory detachment are not well-recognized sequelae of typhoid fever. We report a case of vasculitis, retinitis and macular neurosensory detachment presenting post typhoid fever. A 27-year-old female presented with decreased vision in right eye with history of typhoid fever......
Role of lupus retinopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus
Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 6 - Trang 1-4 - 2016
Lupus retinopathy is one of the most common vision-threatening complications of systemic lupus erythematosus. The presence of lupus retinopathy is an accurate guide to the presence of active systemic disease activity. A prospective study was conducted looking at 91 established cases of systemic lupus erythematosus to evaluate lupus retinopathy. The patients were divided into two groups according t......
Unilateral snow banking in tuberculosis-related intermediate uveitis

Snow banking is usually a term coined to describe the accumulation of vitreous exudates over the pars plana and the peripheral retina in pars planitis. Snow banking is very rare in tubercular intermediate uveitis. A 32-year-old male was diagnosed to have intermediate uveitis due to tubercular etiology in the right eye. Laboratory investigations include an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ......
Statin use and ocular inflammatory disease risk
Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 3 - Trang 1-6 - 2013
This study aims to evaluate the effect of oral statin medication use on the subsequent development of ocular inflammatory disease (OID). A retrospective nested case–control study was carried out on patient records from the Birmingham Veterans Affairs Medical Center. All male patients with a new diagnosis of OID over a 5-year period were included. Ten control subjects (without OID) were age-matched......
Cytomegalovirus as a cause of hypertensive anterior uveitis in immunocompetent patients

Repeat corneal graft failure due to graft-to-host herpetic infection
Journal of Ophthalmic Inflammation and Infection - Tập 3 - Trang 1-4 - 2013
Herein, we present the case of a young female patient with keratoconus, who was subjected twice to repeat keratoplasty, and each time, she experienced a corneal graft failure. Under the suspicion of herpetic eye disease, we administered topical and systemic anti-herpetic treatment after the second repeat keratoplasty. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the corneal graft is clear, until r......
