Abstract

Abstract : Inflammatory bowel disease can present with multiple ocular manifestations, including episcleritis, scleritis, and uveitis (supplementary data [1]). The incidence of ophthalmological complications in patients with inflammatory bowel disease varies from 3.5% to 11.8% (supplementary data [2]). We present 3 rare cases of central retinal vein occlusion associated with ulcerative colitis.
