Abstract
Abstract The ophthalmic manifestations of gout are rare. There are only few published reports and study about it. The majority of patients with ocular gout abnormalities are asymptomatic. The authors discuss the case of a 43-year-old male who presented with central corneal keratolysis with perforation. The patient has an approximately 14-year history of gout attacks and chronic keratouveitis witch started about the same time. Coincidence of keratouveitis in a patient with gout has not been reported and it is unclear if this condition is rare or may only be by chance at the same time with gout.
