Abstract

This chapter contains an interesting collection of OCT images of a variety of uveitis diseases and the characteristic features of each have been explained. This starts with uveitis cystoid macular edema and continues with Behcet’s disease, toxoplasma retinochoroiditis, serpiginous choroiditis, other white dot syndromes (multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, acute zonal occult outer retinopathy, acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy and multifocal choroiditis with panuveitis), and tuberculous choroiditis. In addition, unique feature of inflammatory choroidal neovascularization has been explained. It contains diagnostic tips of not only OCT but other imaging modalities such as enhanced-depth imaging, fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography, echography, and the visual field. It highlights common and differentiating hallmarks of posterior scleritis and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease and features to consider a patient in remission. Another valuable aspect of this chapter is that follow-up images are included to highlight changes with time or treatment. Rare diseases such as idiopathic retinal vasculitis, aneurysm, and neuroretinitis (IRVAN) and vascular accident in the setting of viral retinitis have also been demonstrated. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
