Clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease in pediatric age group
Pediatric VKH patients are prone to significant complications such as cataracts, glaucoma, and choroidal neovascularization. Despite these complications, appropriate use of systemic corticosteroids and immunosuppressants can lead to favorable visual outcomes. Long-term careful monitoring is essential to manage recurrences, complications and prevent vision-threatening complications.
