摘要：

PURPOSE: To evaluate the mechanism of formation of the transient shallow anterior chamber in Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. METHODS: Two patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome with shallow anterior chambers were examined with an ultrasound biomicroscope, RESULTS: A ciliochoroidal detachment, which was not obvious on ophthalmoscopic examination, was clearly demonstrated in both patients by ultra sound biomicroscopy. The detachment disappeared after systemic corticosteroid therapy, CONCLUSION: The shallowing of the anterior chamber in two patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome was caused by suprachoroidal effusion secondary to inflammation of the uvea.
