This article describes the case of a 48-year-old male patient who presented with persistent inflammation and deterioration of vision to a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 0.6 in the only functioning left eye. The right eye had suffered a severe penetrating ocular trauma 6 months prior to presentation. After diagnosis of a sympathetic ophthalmia a high dosage corticosteroid therapy was initiated. Due to intolerance with decompensating diabetes an immunosuppressive therapy with azathioprine was initiated. This therapy resulted in stable clinical findings with an increase in BCVA to 0.9.     «
