Optical Coherence Tomography Findings in Nodular Anterior Scleritis due to Post-Streptococcal Syndrome

Purpose: to report a case of nodular anterior scleritis due to poststreptococcal syndrome using optical coherence tomography imaging.case report: a 41-year-old woman with a history of acute rheumatic fever presented with a nodular anterior scleritis. common causes were excluded. optical coherence tomography of sclera showed enlarged vessels, inflammatory infiltrates, separated fibers, and a serous detachment. laboratory investigations showed an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, raised anti-streptolysin o titer, and the presence of group a streptococcus in the throat. the scleritis rapidly improved with penicillin treatment. conclusions: poststreptococcal syndrome should be considered in the etiology of nonnecrotizing anterior scleritis.
