Assessment of Choroidal and Central Foveal Thickness in Cases of Acute Anterior Uveitis Using Optical Coherence Tomography

Background: The most typical ocular inflammatory condition is anterior uveitis, which frequently results in a painful red eye. Acute, subacute, or chronic manifestations are possible [1]. Acute uveitis (AAU) can develop as localized infection standalone medical unrelated to any other illness inflammation the body. Most instances of acute unilateral, non-granulomatous do not require an extensive work up because 50% these patients idiopathic [2]. When recurrent, chronic, bilateral, granulomatous, resistant treatment, intermediate, posterior, children under age 15, laboratory testing should be taken into consideration. majority with full workup [3].
 Aim Study: Using optical coherence tomography and improved depth imaging, this controlled, selected, cross-sectional investigation evaluated thickness choroidal central foveal tissues uveitis.
 Patients Methods: study included 50 eyes from 25 including 5 who had bilateral illness, 20 10 healthy, age-, gender-, refraction-matched controls.
 Results: mean 24 years (range 38 years) controls was 22 13 40 years).This conducted on patients: 17 male (68%) 8 females (32%) control participants: males (50%) (50. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measured all participants using decimal notation (0.425± 0.213) mildly decreased. All ophthalmological examination, fundus macula OCT imaging assessment sub-foveal thickness, we documented. active scanned displayed cell densities ranging +1 +3 chamber. underwent spectral domain-OCT enhanced discovered that increase affected eye and, lesser extent, appears compared completely normal people.
 Conclusion: Comparing fellow patients, both rise markedly.
