Etiology and Anatomical Location of Uveitis—Prognostic Factors for Disease Course and Laterality

Our findings indicate that the etiology and anatomical location of uveitis can serve as prognostic factors for contralateral eye involvement and the progression of the inflammatory process. We found that anterior and posterior uveitis were predominantly unilateral and typically presented with an acute or recurrent course, whereas intermediate uveitis and panuveitis were more commonly chronic. In men, uveitis more often had an acute onset, while in women, it tended to follow a chronic course.

Abstract

Our findings indicate that the etiology and anatomical location of uveitis can serve as prognostic factors for contralateral eye involvement and the progression of the inflammatory process. We found that anterior and posterior uveitis were predominantly unilateral and typically presented with an acute or recurrent course, whereas intermediate uveitis and panuveitis were more commonly chronic. In men, uveitis more often had an acute onset, while in women, it tended to follow a chronic course.
