Leptospirosis is a zoonotic infection caused by spirochetes leptospira. It presents with both ocular and systemic manifestations. Neuroretinitis has been reported in the few cases of leptospirosis. We present a case of leptospirosis with unilatertal neuroretinitis presenting with sudden loss of vision, optic disc edema and macular star. Leptospirosis was confirmed by serological test and the disease responded optimally to specific therapy.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
