Neurological Manifestations in VKH Disease

Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is an autoimmune condition that primarily affects the eyes but can also impact the nervous system. Neurological manifestations may include symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and cognitive changes due to inflammation of the protective layers around the brain and spinal cord. This can lead to conditions like meningitis, causing confusion or altered consciousness. Patients might experience visual disturbances or even inner ear issues affecting balance. Early recognition and treatment are crucial to managing these neurological symptoms and preventing further complications.
