Purpose: To estimate the incidence/risk factors for cataract in noninfectious anterior uveitis.
Design: Retrospective multicenter cohort study (6 US tertiary uveitis sites, 1978-2010).
Methods: Data were harvested by trained expert reviewers, using protocol-driven review of experts' charts.

Introduction: We evaluated the associations of clinical and demographic characteristics with visual acuity (VA) with over 5 years in a subspecialty noninfectious uveitis population.
Methods: Retrospective data from 5,530 noninfectious uveitis patients were abstracted by expert reviewers, and contemporaneous associations of VA with demographic and clinical factors were modeled.
Results: Patients were a median of 41 years old, 65% female, and 73% white.

: We evaluated visual acuity (VA) over 5 years in a subspecialty noninfectious uveitis population.: Retrospective data from 5,530 noninfectious uveitis patients with anterior, intermediate, posterior or panuveitis were abstracted by expert reviewers. Mean VA was calculated using inverse probability of censoring weighting to account for losses to follow-up.

Purpose: To characterize the risk and risk factors for intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation in pediatric noninfectious uveitis.
Design: Multicenter retrospective cohort study.
Participants: Nine hundred sixteen children (1593 eyes) younger than 18 years at presentation with noninfectious uveitis followed up between January 1978 and December 2007 at 5 academic uveitis centers in the United States.

Therapy for autoimmune ophthalmic disease is currently evolving. The improved understanding of the abnormal immune response in the various forms of uveitis has resulted in targeted therapy. The aberrations of the immune system have been characterized by atypical cell populations, cytokine expression, and cell-cell interactions.
