Conclusion
Ocular manifestations are not common; therefore, Treponema
pallidum infection should always be considered as a differential
diagnosis in patients with uveitis. The role of ophthalmologists might
be crucial in diagnosis, as it may be the one and only sign of the
disease. Delay in diagnosis and causal treatment may result in permanent
visual impairment. Sexual partners of affected patients should be
diagnosed and treated accordingly to avoid reinfection. Moreover, all
patients should be tested for HIV infection and there should be and
routine screening among the patients with HIV infection for syphilis.
