Purpose: The purpose of this study is to categorize the patterns of uveitis macular edema using Optical Coherence Tomography as a diagnostic tool.

Methodology: It is the Descriptive, cross-sectional study.

All patients achieving the diagnostic criteria with Optical coherence tomography diagnosed macular edema were enrolled from 1 March 2020 to 28 February 2021.

Patterns of uveitis macular edema were classified, and the central retinal subfield thickness was measured.

Results: A total of 74 eyes of 47 patients were included.

Twenty-three (48.93%) were male, and Twenty-four (51.06%) were females.

The mean age was 30.47 years (SD 10.56).

Twenty-five eyes (53.2%) had pan uveitis, followed by 10 eyes (21.3%) of posterior uveitis, 8 eyes (17 %) of intermediate uveitis and 4 eyes (8.5%) of anterior uveitis.

Patterns of macular edema were classified: diffuse macular edema (DME) 61.7%, cystoid macular edema (CME) 38.3% and serous retinal detachment (SRD) 27.7%.

Conclusion: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is safe and non-invasive technique to assess the macular edema and has the potential for measuring changes in retinal thickness
