Atypical acquired toxoplasmosis

A 33-year-old male presented with unilateral painless vision loss with a history of sub-tenon steroid for the same. The fundus showed an elevated focus of retinochoroiditis with vitritis. On investigating for the cause, polymerase chain reaction test on the anterior chamber tap was found to be positive for Toxoplasma. Such confusing and atypical cases usually produce a clinical dilemma and should be managed in a stepwise manner. Ancillary investigations usually provide a clue to the clinician and should be performed without any hesitation.
