| Description |
Ocular inflammatory symptoms with concurrent neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations can be diagnostically challenging. We provide a general overview of uveo-meningeal syndromes, which comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders that involve inflammation of the uveal tract, retina, and meninges. The presentation focuses on the uveomeningeal syndrome of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) Disease by providing a comprehensive overview of diagnostic criteria, pathogenesis, clinical course, and management. To demonstrate the heterogeneous clinical presentations and possible neuro-ophthalmological manifestations that can challenge diagnosis, we chronicle three cases of VKH seen at our institution and highlight the diagnostic work-up, management, and outcomes. This presentation summarizes a practical strategy for approaching the clinical heterogeneity of VKH. |
