Over the past several decades, initial treatment regimens have shifted from intravenous antivirals requiring hospital admission to the routine use of oral antivirals with intravitreal antivirals for immediate local control. Given the rarity of this disease process and a lack of large-scale research trials, debate continues over recommended practice guidelines. In this paper, we review current diagnostic criteria and recommend a treatment algorithm based on available evidence.Keywords: occlusive vasculitis, medical management, posterior uveitisPowell BWang DLlop SRosen RBDove Medical Pressarticleocclusive vasculitismedical managementposterior uveitisOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 1931-1943 (2020)
