To report a patient presenting with unilateral xanthopsia who was diagnosed as having retinal vasculitis with pulmonary tuberculosis.
A case report.
A 20-year-old man presented with xanthopsia in the right eye. Fundus examination revealed multiple retinal hemorrhages, vascular sheathing, and a yellowish retina.
He was diagnosed as having retinal phlebitis with pulmonary tuberculosis by chest x-ray and computerized tomography scans and treated with anti-tuberculosis medications. After treatment, he described clearance of xanthopsia, and fundus examination also showed normal coloration.
Xanthopsia may be a sign of retinal vasculitis associated with tuberculosis. Ophthalmologists should suspect retinal vasculitis when patient complains of xanthopsia.

一名 20 岁男性出现右眼黄视。眼底检查显示多处视网膜出血、血管鞘和黄色视网膜。
胸部 X 线和计算机断层扫描显示该患者患有肺结核性视网膜静脉炎,并用抗结核药物进行治疗。治疗后,他描述黄视消失,眼底检查也显示正常颜色。
黄视可能是与结核相关的视网膜血管炎的一个征象。当患者抱怨黄视时,眼科医生应怀疑视网膜血管炎。
