Abstract

Multifocal choroiditis forms a subset of the white-dot syndromes in which inflammation is focussed on the choroid. Multifocal choroiditis with panuveitis (MCP), punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) and birdshot chorioretinopathy (BCR) have been distinguished, although some consider PIC to be a variant of MCP. The aetiology is largely unknown and treatment is with local or systemic corticosteroids as well as immunosuppressive agents. Visual prognosis depends on the adverse effects of uveitis.
