Abstract

A 64-year-old Mexican fisherman with a history of syphilis is diagnosed with panuveitis of the right eye after presenting with unilateral blurry vision, redness, and pain. A PPD was 35X30mm, and chest X-ray suggested tuberculosis. The patient’s pain and vision improved with 4-drug anti-tuberculous therapy, topical steroids, and cycloplegic eye drops.
