ABSTRACT
VKH syndrome is a symptom complex having prodromal systemic manifestations, bilateral uveites and exudative retinal detachment. It has not been known clearly whether it is relelated to DM or not. We experienced a 43-year old man complaining of acutely decreased visual acuity in both eyes with bilateral choroidal detachment. He has been diabetic for 5 years in uncontrolled state. He was diagnosed to have VKH syndrome and was treated with local steroid injection with visual improvement. So we present this case with review of literatures.
