Abstract
To investigate the frequency of initial-onset acute uveitis associated with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease presenting with unilateral exudative retinal detachment.
A retrospective case series.
During the period between January 1998 and December 2020, we identified 135 patients with initial-onset acute uveitis associated with VKH disease. Among them, 5 (3.7%) patients were referred to have unilateral uveitis due to the presence of exudative retinal detachment in only one eye. Optical coherence tomography confirmed the presence of unilateral exudative retinal detachment, however, indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) revealed characteristic findings of bilateral granulomatous choroidal inflammation typical for initial-onset acute uveitis associated with VKH disease.
Patients with initial-onset acute uveitis associated with VKH disease can present with unilateral exudative retinal detachment. ICGA assessment of the choroid revealed the presence of subclinical involvement of the fellow eyes.
