Inflammatory choroidal neovascularization (iCNV) significantly contributes to vision impairment and ranks as the third primary cause of CNV. Arising from both infectious and noninfectious uveitis, iCNV's pathogenesis involves Bruch membrane rupture, local inflammation, and choriocapillaris ischemia. The diagnosis of iCNV is challenging due to its symptomatic overlap with other uveitis-related conditions.

Methods: Single-center prospective observational study including 14 eyes from 13 patients with MEWDS monitored over a median of 49.5 days (interquartile range = 29-92 days).
Objective: To investigate clinical and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) biomarkers correlating with pre-injection visual acuity (VA), post-injection VA, and the likelihood of macular oedema (MO) regression following dexamethasone (DEX) implant injection in non-infectious uveitic (NIU) patients.
Methods: Patient data from Uveitis Services in Milan, Paris, and Berlin were analysed. Eligible participants were NIU patients aged >18 years with MO as the primary indication for DEX treatment.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the foveal changes occurring in multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) using multimodal imaging techniques with a specific focus on hyper-reflective dots (HRDs).
Methods: This was a retro-prospective observational study including 35 eyes with active MEWDS. Structural and en face optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed, with follow-up visits at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 2 months from baseline.
Background: Syphilis has historically been referred to as "the great imitator", for the extent of disease manifestations secondary to infection. Ocular manifestations include a wide range of intra-ocular inflammation.
Methods: In this study, we report the case of a 52 years-old male patient with syphilitic hemorrhagic necrotizing retinitis.
