Abstract

A 6-year-old boy was referred to our hospital for sudden blurring vision in the left eye. An ophthalmological evaluation showed white endothelial keratic precipitates and increased intra-ocular pressure. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of hypertensive uveitis in children under 10 years of age and we also discuss the role of Epstein-Barr virus as a possible infectious trigger.
