Sympathetic ophthalmia in an 85-year-old female and a 90-year-old male after a non-complicated cataract surgery: a case report
Here, two cases involving the oldest reported patients with sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) after non-complicated cataract surgery, are reported. The first case was an 85-year-old female with bilateral decreased vision and headache. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.8 in the right eye and 1....

description | Here, two cases involving the oldest reported patients with sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) after non-complicated cataract surgery, are reported. The first case was an 85-year-old female with bilateral decreased vision and headache. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.8 in the right eye and 1.0 in the left eye at the initial visit. Pseudophakia and choroidal detachments were observed in both eyes, and retinal pigment epithelium undulation was observed by optical coherence tomography. The second case was a 90-year-old male with bilateral optic disc oedema. The BCVA was 0.09 in the right eye and 0.3 in the left eye with pseudophakic eyes. Optic disc oedema and choroidal thickening were observed in both eyes. Both patients were diagnosed with SO, and corticosteroid pulse treatments were started. The BCVA of the first case improved to 0.9 in the right eye and 1.2 in the left eye, while that of the second case reached 0.3 in the right eye and 0.6 in the left eye. No recurrence was observed in either case at 12 months after the initial visit. Both elderly patients with SO were successfully treated. |
