Abstract. A 27-year-old woman presented with metamorphopsia,central scotoma and pain in her right eye. She had received bilateral maxillary surgery for parasinusitis. Her corrected visual acuity was 0.8 right and 1.2 left. Her right eye showed swollen optic disc,folds in the macula,and retinal edema inferior to the macula. Fluorescein angiography showed dye leakage from the disc and exudative retinal detachment inferior to the macula.Indocyanine green angiography showed delayed dye filling in the choriocapillaris,hypofluorescent spots,choroidal hyperfluorescence,and dilated choroidal vessels. Computerized tomography(CT)and ultrasonography showed thickening in the posterior sclera,leading to the diagnosis of posterior scleritis. Systemic corticosteroid induced disappearance of paracentral scotoma,retinal detachment,choroidal hyperfluorescence and dilatation of choroidal vessels. These findings appeared to reflect reduced maximal inflammatory activity. Even after apparent remission,the affected eye showed persistent thickening of the sclera,dye leakage from the optic disc,hypofluorescent spots,and delayed dye filling in the choriocapillaris. These findings seemed to reflect the subclinical persistence of posterior scleritis.
