Abstract |
: |
Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome is a bilateral granulomatous
panuveitis with central nervous system, auditory,
and integumentary manifestations.1,2 Typically, ocular
involvement is associated with choroidal lesions, exudative
retinal detachments, and optic nerve inflammation.2 Treatment
usually requires high-dose systemic corticosteroids
and immunosuppressive agents.1,2 Resolution without visually
significant sequelae may occur, but complications,
including cataract, glaucoma, and choroidal neovascular
membrane formation, are not infrequent |
