Referral Patterns of Uveitis in a Tertiary Eye Care Center

Abstract

The appearance of new uveitic entities, such as the acute retinal necrosis syndrome, multifocal choroiditis and panuveitis, birdshot retinochoroidopathy, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related uveitis, and the reemergence of the classic infectious causes of uveitis, tuberculosis and syphilis, have changed the way we approach the diagnosis and management of posterior and panuveitis at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
