Diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN) is a form of uveitis that can potentially lead to blindness. In Brazil and other parts of South America, diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis is an important cause of posterior uveitis in children and healthy young adults. If diagnosed and treated in early stage, allows a resolution of symptoms with improvement of visual acuity. If the dis...

three-disc-diameters with a pale, swollen optic disc (Fig. 1A). Colour vision, using the Ishihara’s screening test for colour defi ciency, was normal in the right eye but left eye testing could not be performed. A HumphreyTM visual fi eld test showed a diffuse dampening of the left visual fi eld. Based on these fi ndings, a provisional diagnosis of left non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic ne...

Neuroretinitis (NR) is an inflammatory disorder characterized by optic disc edema and subsequent formation of a macular star. We present a case of a 33 year old woman patient admitted for a progressive bilateral visual loss since two weeks. Fundus examination showed bilateral stellate neuroretinitis. Physical examination revealed a malignant hypertension of 210/150 mmHg. Magnetic resonance imag...

Background: Neuroretinitis is a self-limiting condition which typically causes monocular vision loss with good potential for visual recovery. It may be idiopathic or associated infectious inflammatory conditions can carry systemic implications. classically presents disc edema followed by development of macular star pattern exudates. most commonly attributed to Cat Scratch Disease, Bartonella he...
