Purpose: To evaluate the utility of ultrawide-field fluorescein angiography (UWFFA) in patients with anterior uveitis by investigating the detection of retinal vascular leakage (RVL) and the subsequent implications on disease diagnosis and management.
Study Design/materials And Methods: Patients, who were referred to the National Eye Institute (NEI) for evaluation of anterior uveitis and underwent UWFFA imaging at the initial visit, were included in this study. The electronic medical records of eligible patients were reviewed. The UWFFA images were assessed for severity of retinal vascular leakage, presence of macular leakage, and optic disc leakage by a two-grader system, and intergrader agreement was calculated using the κ-value. Patients with altered diagnoses and management attributable to UWFFA results were noted.
Results: A total of 93 eyes of 63 patients were included in the study. Of 93 eyes, 31 (33.3%) eyes had RVL on UWFFA, with 26 (28.0%) eyes and 5 (5.4%) eyes showing mild and moderate-severe RVL, respectively. Twenty-five (26.9%) eyes showed macular leakage, and 7 (7.5%) eyes showed optic disc leakage. The κ-values ranged from 0.85 - 0.87 indicating excellent intergrader agreement. Of the 31 eyes with RVL, the diagnosis was changed to anterior/intermediate uveitis for 9 (29.0%) eyes and to panuveitis for 4 (12.9%) eyes. Systemic treatment was escalated in 5 patients.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that UWFFA imaging is useful in detecting subclinical posterior involvement in patients with anterior uveitis. Moreover, UWFFA results in altered diagnosis and treatment approaches in a portion of patients.
