The Diverse Spectrum of Presumed Ocular Tuberculosis Including Optic Neuropathy in a Tuberculosis-Endemic Region: A Case Series from India.

granulomatous uveitis (n = 2), panuveitis (n = 3), phlyctenular conjunctivitis (n = 1), serpiginous-like choroiditis (n = 3), multifocal choroiditis (n = 4), choroidal granuloma (n = 5), choroidal tubercle (n = 3), and Eales disease (n = 4).

Tuberculosis-associated optic neuropathy was observed in 13 patients secondary to intracranial tuberculosis.

Retrobulbar optic neuritis was more frequently observed than papillitis in these cases.

To conclude, ocular tuberculosis demonstrates varied clinical manifestations, with significant risk of vision loss due to both disease and treatment-related toxicity.
