We report three cases of optic nerve toxoplasmosis, an unusual form of ocular toxoplasmosis. In one patient, the optic nerve involvement occurred in an eye with a toxoplasmic chorioretinal scar and choroidal neovascularization in the supramacular area, subretinal fibrosis, and pigment epithelium detachment. The other two patients had papilledema without healed or active chorioretinal lesions, but both had retinal hemorrhage and macular involvement.

Purpose: To measure the lesion size reduction in eyes with active toxoplasma retinochoroiditis during the disease course with swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA).
Methods: We retrospectively analysed the chorioretinal lesion size in a group of 14 eyes with a single active toxoplasma retinochoroiditis lesion. SS-OCTA was performed at the baseline and follow-up in all eyes.

Introduction: Unilateral papillitis and neuroretinitis are uncommon manifestations of ocular infection and pose particularly challenging diagnosis problems. Due to the limited accessibility of healthcare and poor socioeconomic status of a significant proportion of the population in Democratic Republic of the Congo, knowledge of seroprevalence rates for toxoplasmosis remains key to the health system. When papillitis or neuroretinitis is suspected, vitreous inflammatory reaction is usually present at various degrees on the initial examination as a diagnosis clue.

A 29-year-old healthy man had blurring of vision in the left eye for the past 2 months and was referred for the surgical management of optic disc pit maculopathy. Colour fundus examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed a large deep retinochoroidal excavation close to the temporal edge of the optic disc with an isolated central neurosensory detachment at the macula with underlying multiple small pigment epithelium detachments in the absence of retinoschisis. Fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) confirmed the presence of multi-focal leakage at the macula and pooling into subretinal space in the form of a 'smoke-stack'.
