    To report a rare case of simultaneous uveitis and keratitis in Takayasu's arteritis.

    Case summary

    A 22-year-old woman presented with complaints of redness and decrease in vision in both eyes. The patient was diagnosed a decade earlier as having Takayasu's arteritis. No other systemic or ophthalmic abnormalities were found. She complained of ophthalmic symptom aggravation during an upper respiratory infections and before menstruation. Bilateral corneal edema, conjunctival injection, and anterior uveitis were observed on slit-lamp examination. Concurrent treatments were started in consultation with an internist. Steroid eye drop and steroid systemic administration relieved the ocular pain and symptoms.

    Conclusions

    When a patient presents with recurrent red eyes and visual disturbances with Takayasu's ateritis, simultaneous uveitis and keratitis due to Takayasu's arteritis should be considered as a possible diagnosis.
