Uveitis and vitritis secondary to syphilis

Photo of retina (color and after intravenous fluorescien dye) in a patient with uveitis and vitritis secondary to syphilis. The optic nerve is swollen (blurring of the optic disc margens), there is retinal edema and necrosis (retina appears white and elevated) as well as retinal vasculitis and tortuous vessels coming from the optic nerve. In addition, the presence of significant vitritis gives the picture a general haze (due to inflammatory cells floating in the vitreous).
