Idiopathic unilateral ocular vasculitis in a young adult: a case report on clinical course and steroid response

Idiopathic ocular vasculitis, though rare, should be considered in patients with intraocular inflammation and no systemic findings. Exclusion of secondary causes and timely localized steroid treatment can preserve vision and prevent complications. Individualized management remains key in such rare presentations. Autoimmune and infectious causes including tuberculosis, syphilis, toxoplasmosis, and connective tissue disorders were excluded through thorough laboratory investigations. The patient was followed up for 6 months, demonstrating complete resolution and no recurrence, strengthening the role of local corticosteroid therapy in idiopathic cases.
