Intraocular Tuberculosis

ABSTRACT Intraocular tuberculosis remains a major diagnostic challenge and it is extremely important to establish the diagnosis as the specific treatment helps in reducing the recurrences, thus reducing ocular morbidity. The present review aims to describe the global epidemiology and pathogenesis of intraocular tuberculosis with clinical spectrum and different presentations. The challenges in establishing the diagnosis with role of conventional tests like PPD skin test as well as current diagnostic tests including interferon gamma release assay and molecular diagnostic tests are discussed. The treatment requires anti-tuberculosis therapy with the use of concomitant corticosteroids and carries good prognosis provided the treatment is started in the early stage.
