Eyes with active VRL exhibited choroidal thickening with increased vascular and stromal areas that decreased after remission following MTX treatment. Higher aqueous IL-10 and IL-6 levels and lower visual acuity in the active phase may indicate the number of injections required for remission; this should be considered in the treatment of patients with VRL.
