Rare case report: a 26-year-old man with Eales' disease.

To report the case of a 26-year-old male with bilateral Eales' disease that led to total blindness in the left eye and legal blindness in the right eye in a short time. A total clinical systemic examination, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, genetic testing, and optical coherence tomography were performed in the reported case. The eye condition was managed by scatter laser treatment, Anti-VEGF injections, anterior chamber paracentesis and trabeculectomy. Non-steroidal eye drops, as well as prostaglandin analogues, beta-blockers, and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, have been used as local treatment. Systemic treatment included an intravenous methylprednisolone course, oral corticosteroids, azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil and a total amount of 12 Anti-VEGF injections. Despite the aggressive treatment with oral steroids, immunosuppressants, and anti-VEGF injections, there were many exacerbations, and remission was not achieved. As a result, aggressive neovascular glaucoma developed, which led to total blindness in the left eye and legal blindness in the right eye.
