Macular edema is the major cause of visual loss in patients with uveitis. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a rapid, non-invasive method for obtaining cross-sectional images of retina and is especially useful in diagnosing macular pathology. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between OCT patterns of macular edema secondary to non-infectious uveitis and different anatomical sites of inflammation. 78 eyes of 48 patients with uveitic macular edema met the inclusion criteria and were examined retrospectively by OCT. OCT demonstrated three patterns of structural changes in uveitic macular edema: diffuse macular edema (29 eyes, 37.2%), cystoid macular edema (30 eyes, 38.5%) and cystoid macular edema with serous foveal detachment (19 eyes, 24.3%). The difference of three patterns of edema in the four types of uveitis was not statistically significant (anterior vs. intermediate uveitis p=0.06, anterior vs. posterior uveitis p=0.48, anterior vs. panuveitis p=0.52, intermediate vs. posterior uveitis p=0.6, intermediate vs. panuveitis p=0.05, posterior vs. panuveitis p=0.73). Specific features of uveitic macular edema on the OCT with the highest frequency in the group of subjects with the best corrected visual acuity <0.1 are large cysts and disturbances of the ellipsoid zone of photoreceptors. Further research is needed to clarify the actual effect of certain features on the visual function.
