Core Tip |
We report here a rare case of posterior scleritis, which was initially misdiagnosed as acute conjunctivitis due its presentation of non-specific clinical features, specifically eye pain and redness. Ophthalmic accessory examinations, such as optical coherence tomography, ultrasound biomicroscopy and fundus photography, should be conducted in the early stage of this disease; this will facilitate making the appropriate differential diagnosis and avoid delay in treatment, which could otherwise lead to the loss of vision. |
