Meningococcal C conjugate vaccines have proved to be safe and highly efficient in preventing group C meningococcal disease. Very few serious side‐effects have been reported. The case is reported of a 14 year‐old boy who developed acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy 3 days after receiving the vaccine. No other cause of uveitis was detected from history or from investigations. The patient was treated with topical and systemic corticosteroids and his visual acuity improved to near normal in both eyes at 4 months. Meningococcal immunization may have precipitated acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy in this adolescent.
