Abstract

Sympathetic ophthalmia is a rare form of bilateral granulomatous panuveitis, occurring after penetrating trauma. Hitherto, sympathetic ophthalmia after vitrectomy has only occasionally been described in the literature. This case report presents a female patient with sympathetic ophthalmia after repeated pars plana vitrectomy on the basis of clinical findings and follow-up with fluorescein angiography, spectral domain OCT, and histopathology.
