Clinical and Imaging Characteristics of Uveitic Optic Disc Edema

UDE as a distinct clinical entity has not been well categorized in the literature. A multimodal imaging approach including OCT RNFL, OCT disc raster scan, VF testing, and FA can aid in diagnosis of UDE. OCT disc raster height may be used as a surrogate for FA intensity and may be a useful adjunctive modality for monitoring UDE severity along with serial OCT scans. Increased intracranial pressure was rare in our patient cohort so neuroimaging should not be obtained solely based on optic disc appearance and imaging abnormalities.
