Abstract

Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BCR) is a rare form of chronic posterior uveitis, usually requiring long-term, systemic immunosuppression.1 The severe impact of the disease on acuity, visual field, color discrimination, and electrodiagnostics is well-documented,1 ; 2 but studies on quality of life (QoL) have been limited. Furthermore, existing QoL tools fail to capture the unique and wide range of symptoms associated with BCR and BCR medications.
