Uveitis in children is a rare disease, often going undiagnosed. Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, a uveomeningeal disease from an autoimmune process, rarely affects children, but an early diagnosis is essential in order to begin systemic corticosteroid therapy within the shortest delay possible for a better visual prognosis. We report a case of a 10-year-old boy, already treated with corticosteroids for the last 3 years for a nephrotic syndrome, referred for a sudden decrease in visual acuity affecting both eyes, associated with typical cutaneous manifestations of the disease.
