What is the reason for the boy's during the physical examination?

Patient's question:

An 11-year-old boy had a vision check-up on May 22nd. His left eye vision was 5.0, and his right eye vision was 4.7, which is normal. On June 1st, he suddenly developed right eye strabismus and severe amblyopia. Refraction showed over 300 degrees of myopia, and B-scan revealed optic disc edema. What could be the reason? How was it caused?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: For the current situation, it's necessary to consider the possibility of retinal lesions. In this case, it's essential to undergo further eye examinations to determine if there are retinal abnormalities, iris changes, or chorioretinitis. Therefore, further eye examinations are necessary to assess visual acuity, astigmatism, intraocular pressure, and the fundus. Based on the specific examination results, the issue with the eyes can be evaluated to take appropriate measures.
