The current role of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging in the diagnosis management uveitis is summarized this article. OCT can be useful to detect monitor cystoid macular edema epiretinal membrane, two findings that are very common intermediate, posterior pan-uveitis. Both FAF demonstrate unique several forms including birdshot chorioretinopathy, multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, acute multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy, zonal occult outer retinopathy, choroiditis Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada disease. Advances have allowed detection alterations retinal microstructure (spectral-domain OCT) as well variations choroidal thickness (enhanced-depth OCT). With new advances imaging, been shown helpful understanding pathophysiology differentiating between various uveitis. techniques may monitoring patients with over time.
