This study reports a rare case of choroiditis and optic nerve involvement in a scleroderma patient. Systemic steroid therapy proved effective in managing these ocular manifestations.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Rheumatology
  • Systemic Autoimmune Diseases

Background:

  • Scleroderma is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by ত্বক thickening and potential organ damage.
  • Ocular manifestations in scleroderma are diverse, but choroidal involvement is infrequently reported.

Observation:

  • A 34-year-old female with known scleroderma presented with choroiditis and optic nerve involvement.
  • Ocular findings were confirmed using fundus fluorescein angiography.

Findings:

  • The patient's ocular conditions, including choroiditis and optic nerve issues, were successfully treated with systemic steroid therapy.
  • This case highlights a rare presentation of ocular involvement in scleroderma.

Implications:

  • Further clinical and histopathological research is warranted to elucidate the precise etiopathogenesis of choroidal involvement in scleroderma.
  • Understanding these rare manifestations can improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for scleroderma patients.
