U-1 Anatomy
anatomy: iris, ciliary body, choroid
physiology:
vasular layer of the eye
blood supply and flow speed
retaining of the immunity cells is very easy
similar to lymph node , “immune center”
“antigen bank” : anterior & posterior uveal tract,
lens, vascular, pigment epithelium, optic nerve…
the incidence of the immunity diseases ↑
Inflammations (
uveitis) and uveal tumors
comprised the vast majority of diseases
affecting uveal tract
Some
associated with systemic diseases
U.2. Uveitis
“Uveitis” denotes inflammation of the choroid
(choroiditis), ciliary body (intermediate uveitis),
or iris (iritis).
etiology
1.infections: bacteria, virus, fungi,
parasites…
2.non-infections
(1) exogenous: physical or chemical injury
allergic reactions to external antigens
(2) endogenous:
classification of uveitis
according to
anatomy location (clinical)
(1)anterior
(2)intermediate
(3)posterior
(4)panuveitis
cause of diseases : infections and noninfections
pathology : granulomatous and nongranulomatous
U.2-1. Anterior uveitis
most common, usually unilateral and acute in oneset
Acute iritis and iridocyclitis
last for two to six weeks . Some patients have only
one or two attacks in a lifetime, and others have
multiple episodes.
1.symptoms
(1) pain
(2) photophobia
(3) blurred vision
2.signs
(1)ciliary or mixed congestion
(2)aqueous flare: blood-aqueous barrier
high concentration of plasma proteins
Tyndall's sign
particularly severe hypopyon
(3) keratic precipitates (KP)
small ( dust, nongranulomatous); large
(mutton fat, granulomatous); pigment;
stellate ( translucency).
(4) Pupil may be small (miosis) or irregular
(5) iris nodule
Koeppe's nodules at iris margin
Busaca nodules at iris stroma
Berlin’s nodules in the anterior chamber angle
(6) Anterior or posterior synechiae
(7) corneal sensation
(8) intraocular pressure
Koeppe nodules
Multiple bussaca nodules
arrows (large) showing the ciliary congestion typical of acute anterior uveitis
Smaller arrows show areas of the iris adherent to the lens (posterior synechiae
differential diagnosis
(1)acute conjunctivitis
(2)acute angle-closure glaucoma
(3)keratitis
How can differentiate the
acute conjunctivitis from
acute angle-closure glaucoma,
and acute iridocyclitis

treatment of iridocyclitis
corticosteriods and cycloplegics:
topical therapy 0.1% dexamethasone;
1% prednisolone acetate,
or systemic therapy prednisone
homatropine 5%
anti-prostaglandins : aspirin or indomethacine
anti-infective therapy: virus, tuberculosis,
syphilis
complications: secondary G; complicated
cataract.
U.2-2. Intermediate Uveitis
Also called pars planitis
cause is unknown, infection, allergy, or autoimmunity?
Commonly occurred in youth (late teens or
early adult years), often bilateral, men
commonly than women
Intermediate uveitis
Symptoms: floaters, blurred vision
pain, photophobia, and redness are usually absent
Signs: vitritis vitreous condensates,free-floating as
“snowballs”
layered over the pars plana and ciliary body as
“snowbank”
Comlications
cystoid macular edema,
retinal vasculitis
optic nerve head neovascularization
Macular edema
diagnosis and differentiation
treatment
posterior sub-Tenon injection of triamcinolone
oral prednisone
steroid-sparing agents
concurrent therapy for specific infectious cause
U.2-3. posterior uveitis
Include retinitis, choroiditis, retinal vasculitis,
and optic neuritis
Most associated with some form of systemic
disease by infectious or noninfectious
posterior uveitis
symptoms
floaters,
reduced vision,
scotomas
Ocular injection: Redness of the eye is absent in conditions that
affect only the posterior segment. Thus, it is rare in
toxoplasmosis and absent in histoplasmosis.
Pain: atypical, but can occur in endopthalmitis, posterior
scleritis and optic neuritis.
posterior uveitis
signs
Anterior uveitis: granulomatous
nongranulomatous
Vitritis : Vitreous opacity, cells may be seen with sliplamp microscope.
Morphology and location of lesions: retina, choroid,
optic nerve
Mode of onset: acute and sudden
slow and insidious
Trauma: history of trauma is important in patients with
uveitis to rule out intraocular foreign body
posterior uveitis
complications
detachment of the retina
treatment
a) Corticosteroids
b) Concurrent therapy for specific infectious
cause
c) Vitrectomy
d) immunosuppressant

U.2-4 panuveitis ( diffuse uveitis)
Uniform cellular infiltration of both the anterior
and posterior segments
Tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, syphilis, sympathetic
ophthalmia, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome,
Behcet’s disease
Endophthalmitis
U.3.Some special types of uveitis
U.3-1.sympathetic ophthalmia
rare but devastating bilateral
granulomatous uveitis that comes on 10
days to many years following a perforating
eye injury.
injured , or exciting eye becomes
inflamed first;
the fellow, or sympathizing eye
secondarily
interval : 2 weeks--2 years
symptoms photophobia,
redness,
blurred vision
signs diffused uveitis
Severely injured sightless eye is
enucleation within 10 days after injury
U.3-2.Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome
age: 30-50;
bilateral eyes;
pigment epithelial disturbance
acute or sub-acute
headache, meningitis, dysaudia, vitiligo, alopecia
-Koyanagi: anterior ; -Harada: posterior segment
treatment
In acute stage, ectrosis with a large dosage of
corticosteroid should be used, 2~3days intravenous
drop can almost inhibit choroidal exudation, then to
diminish dosage gradually, a week later to change to
oral administration; the method is to select intermittent
administrationwhich may lighten the reduction of
adrenocortical function, the lowering velocity should
be decided according to the ill state of each case after
careful observation, commonly till 3~6months to stop
administration;
