The current paper presents a case of unique presentation of idiopathic uveal effusion syndrome. The 28 years old patient with
combined bilateral choroidal and retinal detachment, recurrent in the left eye, underwent surgical procedures. He was treated
with lamellar sclerectomy under the scleral flap in both eyes and another sclerectomy in the left eye later on. The apposition of
the retina was achieved in both eyes and visual acuity improved significantly. Three months later, the patient developed anterior
ischemic optic neuropathy in the right eye. In left eye after cataract phacoemulsification, persisted cystoid macular edema appeared.
