Viral Kerato-Uveitis with Choroidal Vitiligo.

Conclusion: We describe previously unreported novel fundus finding, MHCL in typical VZV-kerato-uveitis cases. We presume MHCL are due to loss of melanin from choroidal melanocytes secondary to the VZV infection and propose a term "choroidal vitiligo" to describe these novel fundus findings.
