Presumed Ocular Tuberculosis: Insights from an Egyptian Cohort

Abstract

Ocular tuberculosis should be considered in cases of recurrent or treatment-resistant uveitis, even in patients without systemic Tb manifestation and with normal chest imaging. In our cohort, anterior and intermediate uveitis were the most common presentations. Most cases were treated with antituberculous treatment whether alone or combined with oral corticosteroids for optimal disease control.
