    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Uveitis is a significant cause of vision loss.
    • Understanding uveitis prevalence and causes is crucial for effective management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the frequency of different uveitis forms.
    • To assess changes in uveitis causes compared to prior research.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 600 uveitis patients.
    • Diagnosis based on history, physical examination, and laboratory tests.

    Main Results:

    • A specific diagnosis was established in 67% of cases.
    • Intermediate uveitis (pars planitis) was the most frequent diagnosis (15.4%).
    • Anterior segment (27.8%), posterior segment (38.4%), and panuveitis (18.4%) were also analyzed.

    Conclusions:

    • The spectrum of uveitis diagnoses is dynamic.
    • Evolving diseases and improved diagnostics alter uveitis etiology and presentation.
