Summary

Ocular toxoplasmosis is the most common cause of infectious uveitis worldwide. The diagnosis of ocular toxoplasmosis is primarily clinical when it is a typical presentation .With an atypical presentation in the fundus, parasitological diagnosis is a decisive contribution, as well as multimodal imaging. We investigate on vitreal, retinal, and choroidal morphologic changes in active and scarred toxoplasmosis lesions using swept source optical coherence tomography.

  • Ocular Toxoplasmosis

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Spectral optical coherence tomography

Swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) is the latest milestone in retinal and choroidal imaging. Because its wavelength of 1050 nm, which is superior to the 840 nm of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), it is able to overcome ocular opacities such as cataracts and vitritis, wich allows retinal and choroidal visualization of eyes whose fundus is not clearly visible. Consequently , SS-OCT allows visualization of the retinal and choroidal vascular networks, even in eyes with medium opacity
