OBJECTIVE
To report 3 cases of unilateral neuroretinitis associated with the chikungunya fever (CHIKV).
METHODS
Retrospective noncomparative case series.
RESULTS
Three female patients with similar complains of blurry vision and decreased visual acuity that started several weeks after experiencing
Spotted fever is a common rickettsial disease in India. It is caused by Rickettsia conorii, which demonstrates vascular tropism and causes endothelial injury. Ocular manifestations include multifocal retinitis and disc edema. Anterior uveitis as a presenting feature of spotted fever is
Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a significant threat to human health because it can progress to retinitis, encephalitis, and hemorrhagic fever. The timing of onset of Rift Valley Fever virus (RVFV) retinitis suggests an autoimmune origin. To determine whether RVFV retinitis is associated with increased
Severe macular oedema causing marked loss of vision is seen in cases of retinitis developing postviral fever. The use of antivascular endothelial growth factor agents for macular oedema and submacular fluid secondary to viral retinitis has not been studied or well established in the past. We report
Three cases of Rift Valley fever retinitis and one case of Tick Bite fever retinitis are presented. The clinical features are indistinguishable, manifesting as localised areas of retinal ischaemia and soft exudate formation. Fluorescein angiography shows that there is primary involvement of the
BACKGROUND
Ocular and extraocular immune-mediated phenomena are known to occur following febrile illness. Vasculitis, retinitis and neurosensory detachment are not well-recognized sequelae of typhoid fever.
RESULTS
We report a case of vasculitis, retinitis and macular neurosensory detachment
Post fever retinitis (PFR), characterized by multiple cotton wool spot like lesions in the posterior pole, is commonly reported following viral and bacterial infections. Retinal perfusion defects have been documented with the help of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in cases of PFR.
OBJECTIVE
To describe a case of rickettsial retinitis in a traveler returning from Africa.
METHODS
Case description.
RESULTS
A 67-year-old woman returning from an excursion in the jungles of Africa presented with a 2-day history of floaters and decreased vision in the right eye. In the two preceding
Post-fever retinitis (PFR) is an infectious or para-infectious uveitic entity caused by bacterial or viral agents and seen mainly in tropical countries. Systemic symptoms such as joint pain, skin rash are common during the febrile stage. On the basis of only clinical presentation, it is difficult to
A 35-year-old male with a history of chikungunya fever, presented with diminution of vision in the right eye of one-week duration. His best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was counting fingers 2 meters and 20/20 (Snellens) in the right and left eyes respectively. A diagnosis of neuroretinitis was
A 57-year-old Dutch woman, who had lived and worked in Tanzania for 26 years, developed serious, progressive bilateral retinitis after suffering from a fever of unknown origin. Fundus abnormalities in both eyes suggested that the woman had been infected with Rift Valley fever virus. Serologic

BACKGROUND
Post typhoid fever immune related reactions affecting the eye is a rare finding which can have various presentations in which typhoid retinopathy is not a well recognized sequelae.
METHODS
Here we present a case of 59 year old male who presented with right eye sudden painless loss of
Ocular microbiome research has gained momentum in the recent past and has provided new insights into health and disease conditions. However, studies on sight threatening intraocular inflammatory diseases have remained untouched. In the present study, we attempted to identify the bacterial microbiome
Various retinal manifestations can occur following a febrile illness due to viral, bacterial or protozoal etiology. As there are limited data in the literature, we undertook this study to analyse the clinical presentation of post-fever retinitis due to various etiologies, as well as its course and
