    Description
    An 8 year-old male patient with pupillary dilation. We can see the presence of "snowballs", a characteristic sign of intermediate uveitis. These are clusters of inflammatory cells, in this case, retrocrystalline snowballs probably attached by fibrin. The retina is applied without major defect, only with the presence of hyperreflective foci in the internal retina.
