Abstract Purpose:To report cases of scleritis of unknown origin treated with steroid pulse therapy.

Cases:In case 1, we experienced posterior scleritis with early remission by steroid pulse therapy. In case 2, necrotizing scleritis developed as a result of ophthalmic surgery. Although steroid pulse therapy was administered in addition to immunosuppressant drugs. However, corneal fungal infection occurred, which eventually led to corneal perforation and eye removal.

Conclusion:The choice of treatment for severe scleritis is challenging because no clear diagnostic criteria or treatment guidelines exist. Some cases are intractable and may require intense treatment from the start.
