Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to understand the clinical experiences of childhood-onset non-infectious uveitis by analyzing data from 507 patients across 21 hospitals in a national registry.
  • Most cases were classified as immune disease-associated uveitis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis, predominantly affecting young females, while idiopathic uveitis and pars planitis occurred more in older children without a strong sex bias.
  • The findings highlighted a variety of ocular complications linked to different types of uveitis, with juvenile idiopathic arthritis cases showing better visual outcomes, whereas idiopathic uveitis and pars planitis were associated with more severe complications and the need for systemic treatments.
