Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease in a patient with retinitis pigmentosa in one eye and pigmented paravenous retinochoroidal atrophy in the other eye
SRD, one of the major characteristic symptoms of VKH disease, may not be common in patients with both RP and VKH disease. VKH disease is associated with meningitis, vitiligo, and hearing loss, but signs other than meningitis are less frequent. However, in RP patients with uveitis, examination of the patient for these non-ocular signs may be needed to diagnose VKH disease.
