Abstract

We report the case of a young man with a 20-year history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, proliferative diabetic retinopathy OD, and uveitis OS. None of the common reported causes contributing to this difference between eyes was present. No features of diabetic retinopathy appeared OS after a follow-up of 36 months. This is the first case, to our knowledge, in which uveitis appeared to be associated with an asymmetric presentation in diabetes.
