黃謙傑 Jerry HuangTaiwan Speaker Infectious Uveitis in Asia: Warning Scenarios Not to Be MissedInfectious uveitis remains a significant cause of visual morbidity in Asia, demanding prompt diagnosis and management. This review highlights critical warning scenarios that clinicians must not overlook, including differentiating acute anterior uveitis from bacterial endophthalmitis, and distinguishing tuberculous retinal vasculitis from Eale's disease. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of recognizing sarcoidosis versus fungal endophthalmitis to avoid misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. Comparative analysis underlines key clinical features, auxiliary investigations, and response to therapy, guiding accurate diagnosis in resource-limited settings. Awareness of these differing presentations and potential pitfalls is essential to prevent irreversible visual loss and to optimize patient outcomes.
