ABSTRACT

Background: Posner-Schlossman syndrome is a rare condition characterized by recurrent attacks of mild anterior chamber reaction with sever ocular hypertension. In most of the cases it is unilateral. Aim: to report a case of bilateral Posner-Schlossman syndrome. Case Report: we report a case of 34 years old male who was attending to the ophthalmology clinic in Prince Rashid Bin Alhassan military hospital and King Hussein Medical Center between January 2023 and October 2025. The patient had repeated six attacks of mild anterior uveitis and sever ocular hypertension in the left eye between January 2023 and February 2025. In September 2025 he developed similar attack in the right eye. Conclusion: Posner Schlossman syndrome is a rare condition of uveitis presenting with mild anterior uveitis with sever ocular hypertension. Other uveitis conditions with similar presentations should be excluded. It is usually unilateral but bilateral presentation of Posner Schlossman might occur.
