Abstract:

Rationale: Compared with intraocular tuberculosis, ocular tuberculosis with ocular surface involvement is rare. Corneal involvement in ocular tuberculosis may include interstitial keratitis or peripheral ulcerative keratitis. We report a case of peripheral ulcerative keratitis directly caused by tuberculosis. Patient concerns: A 20-year-old man complained of vision loss and pain in the left eye that had lasted for 1 week. A slit lamp examination of the left eye showed a corneal epithelial defect, interstitial corneal edema, and a white irregular infiltrative lesion and ulcer (with the dimensio

Abstract:

Any organ system in the body can be affected by tuberculosis. While pulmonary tuberculosis is the most common presentation, extrapulmonary tuberculosis including ocular tuberculosis is also an important clinical problem. Most commonly, ocular tuberculosis presents as anterior uveitis or choroiditis which is caused either by hematogenous infection or hypersensitivity after another organ infection. Eyelid involvement by tuberculosis is mostly secondary to orbital tuberculosis and often presents as a draining sinus. Isolated eyelid tuberculosis is however uncommon. We present the case of a 6 year

Abstract:

Tuberculosis (TB) is a very common systemic disease in India. As per the Global TB Report 2021, the estimated incidence of all forms of TB in India for 2020 was 188/100,000 population. Ocular TB may not be associated with clinical evidence of pulmonary TB; up to 60% of patients with evidence of extrapulmonary TB may not have been diagnosed pulmonary TB. Choroidal tuberculomas have been reported in the literature as a manifestation of ocular TB secondary to pulmonary TB. Here, we present a case of giant choroidal tuberculoma who presented to our OPD without any prior history of pulmonary TB.

Abstract:

This case series aims to discuss cases of bilateral optic neuritis secondary to presumed ocular tuberculosis (TB) in two immunocompetent adults. Ocular TB has been associated with optic neuritis, but bilateral cases in immunocompetent individuals are rarely seen. We report a case series of two young healthy adults with bilateral painless optic neuritis as the presenting feature of ocular TB. Clinical examination, TB tests, and angiographic studies supported the diagnosis. All patients were started on anti-TB medication followed by oral prednisolone and had visual improvement a few weeks after

Abstract:

This case report describes the diagnostic odyssey of a 41-year-old woman with recurrent uveitis, ultimately diagnosed with presumed ocular tuberculosis. Initial consultations at a secondary care facility failed to identify the underlying cause, leading to delays in appropriate treatment and the development of complications, including cataracts and posterior synechiae. Referral to a specialized eye institute resulted in a positive interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) and initiation of anti-tubercular therapy. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing uveitis, the importanc

Purpose: To describe the clinical features, causes and management of patients with acute anterior uveitis. Methods: A prospective study of clinical features, complication and prognosis was done on anterior uveitis patients for a period of 10 months. Detailed history, complete ocular examination, systemic evaluation and relevant investigations were done in 64 patients, appropriate systemic and ocular management was done. Results: Of 64 patients, 65.6% were male and 34.3% female. Mean age of presentation was 42.6 years. 71.8% unilateral and 28.1% bilateral eye involvement was seen. Visual acuity

Abstract:

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a serious haematologic condition that can be related to various diseases, including tuberculosis (TB). The patient is a previously healthy 26-year-old man, originally from western Africa, admitted to hospital for fever and weight loss. Given the results of a computed tomography (CT) scan, ocular examination and microbiologic tests, miliary TB with pulmonary, lymph nodal and ocular involvement was diagnosed. Following the introduction of antitubercular treatment (ATT), an increase in inflammation indexes and severe pancytopenia were observed; at this
