Ocular Syphilis: A Case Report.

Neurosyphilis refers to the involvement of the central nervous system by Treponema pallidum. Ocular syphilis can present with a range of manifestations, uveitis being the most common, and it can occur at any stage of acquired syphilis. There are multiple tests available for the diagnosis of syphilis. Moreover, the treatment of syphilis depends upon the stage of the disease. For years, the management of syphilitic uveitis was controversial among physicians, with several reviews debating whether ocular syphilis is a subtype of neurosyphilis. Recent recommendations state that ocular syphilis should be treated similarly to neurosyphilis, even with a normal liquor examination. Herein, we describe a case of a 57-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with ocular syphilis.
