“…The use of OCT as a screening tool has been proposed for the initial work-up of children with pars planitis to identify possible CME and inform disease management and visual prognosis. 53 In a recent study of patients with pars planitis presenting at mean age of 14.3 ± 10.5 years, using SD-OCT, Yalçındagˇ et al 54 found that the presence of diffuse CME and loss of normal foveal contour were predictive of poor visual acuity. In monitoring treatment response, SD-OCT may show decreased vitreous punctate spots, indicative of vitreous cells ( Figure 3 ) and CME.…”

Pediatric uveitis accounts for up to 10% of all uveitis cases, so special attention must be paid to ensure early diagnosis as well as treatment and follow-up of these young patients in order to decrease the risk of possible ocular complications and consequently vision loss. Multimodal imaging has been an effective and important adjunct in the diagnoses and management of uveitis, especially in children. Reviewed here are the currently utilized modalities, advances, as well as their applications in juvenile idiopathic arthritis–associated uveitis, pars planitis, retinal vasculitis, tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome, Behçet disease, Blau syndrome, and Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada syndrome.
