Leptospiral Uveitis
Abstract:
Leptospirosis is widely regarded as the most widespread zoonosis in the world. Systemic leptospirosis is a biphasic illness. Ocular involvement in leptospirosis has been reported to be extremely variable, ranging from 2% to 90%. Ocular involvement is seen both in the systemic bacteraemic phase as well as in the immunological phase. Leptospiral uveitis is a common entity in the tropical countries. However it remains underdiagnosed mainly because ocular manifestations are noted in the second phase of illness. The primary anatomical location of inflammation is either in the anterior segment or pan uveitis. We report the case of a 40 year old lady who had presented to us with leptospiral uveitis.
