A Case Report of Tuberculous Chorioretinitis in a Lactating Mother

Tuberculosis is an airborne disease caused by infection with the acid-fast bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis most commonly affects the lungs, but has many extrapulmonary manifestations, including intraocular involvement. In the eye, Tuberculosis commonly presents as posterior uveitis. Here we present a case of Tuberculous choroiditis in a lactating mother, who was treated with anti-tuberculous treatment. The lesion started resolving after one month of treatment initiation and almost resolved after completion of treatment.
