PURPOSE: Modalities such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) have improved the diagnostic utility of fundus imaging in management of uveitis. The purpose of this study is to review role of OCT and OCTA in differential diagnosis of certain posterior uveitic entities.
METHODS: Narrative review.
RESULTS: In this review, we have comprehensively summarized the utility of OCT and OCTA in helping the clinician diagnose common but challenging inflammatory conditions including ocular toxoplasmosis, viral retinitis, and vitreoretinal lymphoma, among others. OCT and OCTA can also be used to assess the choriocapillaris involvement in conditions such as multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, and choroidal granulomas in tubercular and sarcoid uveitis.
CONCLUSIONS: Fundus imaging with OCT and OCTA has assumed a significant role in establishing the diagnosis in uveitis apart from microbiological and other laboratory analysis. Advantages such as rapidity and non-invasiveness make these imaging modalities very useful and convenient.
