The case of 26-year old male patient with typical clinical intermediate uveitis (vitritis, periphlebitis) with accompanying leucopenia, bradycardia and demyelination focal areas in brain of unknown etiology is presented. The asymptomatic periphlebitis was also found in the eyes of his twin brothers (30 years old) and sister (20 years old).
PURPOSE: The ophthalmic examination of patients with diagnosed systemic sarcoidosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 33 patients (17 women, 16 men), aged 22-60 years had ophthalmic examination (visual acuity, anterior and posterior segment evaluation, applanation tonometry). In 8 patients repeated examination was performed (duration of observation: 2-31 months). RESULTS: In 27 patients no characteristic features of ocular sarcoidosis were found. In 6 persons (18.2%) variety of ocular lesions was recognized (nodular infiltrations of the eyelids, chronic uveal inflammation, signs of anterior and posterior uveitis in the past, optic disc oedema). In 3 cases ocular lesions preceded the signs of systemic sarcoidosis. This emphasizes the importance of the routine ophthalmic examination of patients with suspected or proven sarcoidosis.
The authors present 2 cases (women aged 33 and 51) of APMPE with typical ophthalmoscopic and angiographic picture. The disease began with acute decrease of visual acuity. During 6 months follow-up there was no progression of the changes.
Investigations were performed in a group of 16 patients after cataract extraction with implantation of an intraocular artificial lens. The authors evaluated the condition of the iris on the basis of a biomicroscopic examination and fluorescein angiography up to 1 year after surgery.
