Abstract

A fifty-seven years old male patient was admitted to clinic with pain, hyperemia and vision loss in his left eye. Best corrected visual acuity was 10/10 in his right eye and 2/10 in his left eye. Anterior and posterior segment examination was normal in his right eye. Ciliary injection, non-granulomatous keratic precipitates at inferior cornea, +2 cell and flare in anterior chamber were observed in anterior segment examination of his left eye. Macular elevation was seen in posterior segment examination. Tuberculosis uveitis was diagnosed with laboratory and radiological findings and treatment was started

Elli yedi yaşında erkek hasta sol gözünde kızarıklık, ağrı ve görme kaybı şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Sağ gözde en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği 10/10 iken, sol gözde 2/10 idi. Sağ ön segment ve arka segment muayenesi doğal olan hastanın sol ön segment muayenesinde silier enjeksiyon, kornea inferiorunda non-granülomatöz keratik presipitatlar ile ön kamarada +2 hücre ve flare izleniyordu. Arka segment muayenesinde ise maküla eleve idi. Yapılan tetkikler sonucunda hastaya tüberküloz üveiti tanısı konarak anti-tüberküloz tedavi başlandı
