  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 55-year-old male presented with bilateral blurring of vision with floaters. He had been receiving intravenous hyperalimentation for disturbed consciousness and disseminated intravascular coagulation. He showed slight vitreous opacity with full visual acuity. He developed bilateral disc edema and cystoid macular edema 7 months later. Diagnostic vitrectomy showed firmly attached vitreous onto the disc. Systemic corticosteroid induced resolution of inflammatory lesions in his right eye. His left eye received therapeutic vitrectomy later to release firm vitreopapillary adhesion. Topical corticosteroid induced rapid resolution of inflammatory lesions. While the cause of uveitis could not be identified, marked response to vitrectomy seemed to show that vitreopapillary traction may have been a major factor for persistent intraocular inflammation.
