Bilateral chronic anterior uveitis & neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations in a patient with Churg-Strauss syndrome: an unusual ocular presentation
Abstract
We describe a patient with Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) who developed bilateral chronic anterior uveitis and neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations 20 years after the onset of asthma and sinus disease. The patient was treated successfully with a combination of cyclophosphamide and prednisone, after other immunomodulatory strategies, aside from systemic prednisone, had failed.
