    Two young patients developed subretinal neovascularization from chronic uveitis. This complication, originating from the choroid, highlights the need for careful diagnosis in inflammatory eye conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Medical Research

    Background:

    • Chronic uveitis of undetermined etiology can lead to serious ocular complications.
    • Subretinal neovascularization (SRNV) is a known complication, but its occurrence in young patients with uveitis is less common.

    Observation:

    • Two pediatric patients with chronic uveitis presented with vision-threatening subretinal neovascularization (SRNV).
    • The SRNV originated from the choroid in both cases.

    Findings:

    • The study details the clinical presentation and probable mechanism of SRNV development in these young patients.
    • Differential diagnosis for intraocular inflammatory conditions was considered.

    Implications:

    • This case series expands the understanding of SRNV as a potential complication of chronic uveitis in younger individuals.
