Purpose: To report two cases of diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN) from northern Iran and to present the sequential imaging.
Methods: Two patients with large subretinal nematodes were evaluated and managed in our clinic. Serial fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging were used to document the course of the disease.
The incidence of neurological disorders, particularly age-related neurodegenerative pathologies, exhibits an alarming upward trend, while current pharmacological interventions seldom achieve curative outcomes. Despite their diverse clinical presentations, neurological diseases often share a common pathological thread: the aberrant accumulation of misfolded proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). This phenomenon, known as ER stress, arises when the cell's intrinsic quality control mechanisms fail to cope with the protein-folding burden.
