Abstract Purpose:To report two cases of uveitis with trichinellosis following ingestion of roasted bear meat.

Cases:A 32-year-old man presented with rash of skin, muscle pain, bilateral palpebral edema, fever and blurred vision in both eyes 2 weeks after eating bear meat. He was diagnosed as trichinellosis. Treatment with oral albendazole and prednisolone was started. With ophthalmological examination, cells in anterior chamber and retinal hemorrhages were observed in his both eyes. Fluorescein angiography revealed retinal vascular leakage. Another 41-year-old man presented with rash of skin, muscle pain, fever and blurred vision in his left eye 2 weeks after eating bear meat. He was diagnosed with trichinellosis. Oral administration of albendazole was started. Vitreous cells and retinal hemorrhage were observed in both eyes. In both cases, inflammation and retinal hemorrhage disappeared one month after first visit.

Conclusion:Trichinellosis is one of the causes of uveitis and palpebral edema. It is important to take history of raw meat consumption for diagnosing trichinellosis.
