This is a review article of punctate inner chorioretinopathy (PIC). The authors detail the epidemiology and clinic presentation of the disease. They recognise the challenge of an accurate diagnosis due to its resemblance to other posterior uveitic entities. Multimodal imaging plays a crucial role by offering valuable insights, as it enables the visualisation of various abnormalities related to uveitis. The authors discuss the ongoing debate of the underlying pathogenesis of the disease. They also summarise the treatment options relating to disease severity and primary cause of visual impairment. The authors detail how decision on maintenance therapy is a complex issue, balancing PIC prognosis variability against immunosuppression risks.
