Composite fundus photograph and fluorescein angiography image of the right eye of a 25-year-old male with history of loss of left eye due to trauma. Patient presented with a 3-month history of gradually, progressive diminution of vision in right eye. He was diagnosed to have sympathetic ophthalmia with a frosted branch angiitis-like picture.

59-year-old lady had blunt trauma left eye with a ruptured globe. She refused further surgery on that eye. She returned 4 months later with decreased vision in the right eye. RE dropped from 20/25 to 20/50. The view is hazy due to vitreous cells. Large white choroidal Dalen-Fuchs nodules are visible.

Montage fundus photograph of the left eye with end stage Sympathetic Ophthalmia, demonstrating optic nerve pallor, severe arterial attenuation, extensive chorioretinal atrophy (sclera is exposed in most areas), and peripheral RPE hyperplasia. Patient is a 50 yo Asian female with history of multiple vitrectomies due to retinal detachment and loss of vision who developed Sympathetic Ophthalmia in the other eye. This picture is 20 years after the disease process started, with end stage picture and HM vision.

Sympathetic ophthalmia is characterized by bilateral diffuse granulomatous uveitis that occurs 2 weeks to many years after traumatic penetration or perforation of the eye. It threatens the sight of the uninjured (sympathizing) eye. In this enucleation specimen, thickening of the uveal tract is evident (arrows). Complete proteinaceous retinal detachment (*) is also present, along with posterior synechia (adhesion of the iris to the anterior capsule of the lens).

In lens-induced uveitis, lens protein in the anterior chamber causes a zonal granulomatous response, which occurs usually 1 day to 3 weeks after capsule rupture. This may be associated with sympathetic ophthalmia. This enucleation specimen shows an indented cornea, accompanied by complete hypopyon occupying the anterior chamber with intense vitreitis. Note that the translucent vitreous has become whitish, and the lens surface is irregular with decoloration of the peripheral areas (arrows).

Higher-power view of choroid in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease ( x65). Note the infiltration of the choroid. In contrast to sympathetic ophthalmia, there is no sparing of the choriocapillaris, and there is destruction of the retinal pigment epithelium.
