A 40-year-old Indian male presented to the emergency department three days following ocular trauma caused by an airborne insect. Initial complaints included a central scotoma and diminished visual acuity. The patient had no significant medical or surgical history. Following a thorough ocular examination, imaging tests, and laboratory investigations, the diagnosis of Serpiginous-Like Choroiditis (SLC) secondary to tuberculosis (TB) infection was established. Subsequent initiation of anti-tuberculous and immunosuppressive therapy led to a progressive amelioration of symptoms. This case highlights the significance of prompt diagnosis and comprehensive management in optimizing outcomes for individuals afflicted with SLC.
