Özet

We report an unusual case of unilateral uveitis with retinal capillaritis showing spontaneous recovery in a 23-year-old female who underwent complete ophthalmological examination. Retinal capillary dilation and leakage was observed of the left eye without systemic manifestations and spontaneously resolved without treatment in 2 months. Unilateral uveitis with retinal capillaritis is an unusual disease in young age and fluorescein angiography is useful for the correct diagnosis and follow-up.
