Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis following bilateral ocular toxoplasmosis
Abstract
Purpose: To describe the development of Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHI) following bilateral ocular toxoplasmosis in an Asian Indian female.
Methods: Case report of a patient with bilateral ocular toxoplasmosis who developed bilateral Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis.
Results: Features characteristic of bilateral Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis developed following several attacks of bilateral toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis in a 26-year-old Indian female patient.
Conclusion: Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis can develop over a period of time in patients with ocular toxoplasmosis.
