ABSTRACT
Ocular toxoplasmosis, a disease of the eye caused by the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii, represents a common cause of posterior uveitis. The Authors review the current Literature regarding the uncommon presentation of ocular toxoplasmosis as macular serous retinal detachment (SRD). It is imperative to keep in mind that inflammatory SRD is a possible presentation of toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis. Underestimation of this clinical scenario and treatment with steroids alone without appropriate antiparasitic drugs, could lead to devastating consequences.
