[Sudden appearance and rapide progression of bilateral visual deterioration].

Abstract

This article describes the case of a 49-year-old patient with incomplete Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. The anamnesis showed that intermittent alternating visual problems had begun 2 weeks before. The best corrected vision was 0.1 bilateral. In addition to a right-sided anterior uveitis multiple blister-like retinal alterations of both fundi were seen in fundoscopy. The fundoscopic findings could be confirmed by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) as multiple intraretinal cysts and areas with neurosensory detachment. Topical and systemic steroid therapy resulted in a rapid reduction of these symptoms. The reversal in SD-OCT corresponded with a visual improvement.
