Uveitis
 is inflammation of the Uvea Tract, middle
section of the eye.
 Uvea Tract has three parts:

Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease
Autoimmunity Against
Melanocytes
 Clinical features of choroidal and skin depigmentation
 Transmission electron microscopy (early stage): close
contact between melanocytes and lymphocytes in the
uvea
 Histopathology (end stage): disappearance of choroidal
melanocytes, and
 Immunohistochemistry (end stage): T and B
lymphocytes in the choroid

Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease
Autoimmunity Against
Melanocytes
 Role of CD4+ T cells
 Cytotoxic leukocytes against melanoma cells in peripheral blood
and CSF
 Cytotoxic CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes against human
melanocytes are present in the peripheral blood.
 Activated CD4+ T cells in depigmented skin and melanin-laden
macrophages d in CSF

Treatment- Corticosteroids
For most patients with bilateral serous detachments and severe visual
loss, begin therapy with systemic prednisone
Severe Cases
 use intravenous methylprednisolone (up to 1 g/d) for several days
before beginning oral prednisone (1 mg/kg/d)
Corticosteroids
 anti-inflammatory properties and modify the body's immune
response to diverse stimuli
 the length of treatment and subsequent taper must be
individualized for each patient
Treatment- Systemic
Corticosteroids
Prednisone
• Decrease inflammation
– reversing increased capillary permeability and suppressing PMN
activity
• DOSE
– 1-1.5 mg/kg/d PO qd initially
– Severe cases with profound loss of vision and bilateral serous
detachments may require up to 2 mg/kg/d
– length of treatment and tapering individualized for each patient
• not be less than 3 mo to avoid recurrence
• CI: hypersensitivity; viral infection; peptic ulcer disease;
hepatic dysfunction; connective tissue infections; fungal or
tubercular skin infections; GI disease
Treatment- Topical
Corticosteroids
Prednisone Acetate
•
For the treatment of associated anterior uveitis
•
Decreases inflammation by suppressing migration of polymorphonuclear
leukocytes and reversing increased capillary permeability
DOSE:
•
Instill1 gtt into conjunctival sac
•
dosing frequency is based upon severity of inflammation
–
Severe inflammation may require dosing every hour
– moderate-to-mild anterior uveitis, dosing at 4-6 times daily may be sufficient
– taper over an appropriate period to avoid rebound inflammation
Precaution: hypertension, cataract formation with long-term use, decrease
frequency to avoid adrenal insufficiency
CI: Documented hypersensitivity; viral, fungal, or tubercular infections; cataract and
glaucoma
Treatment- Cycloplegics
Tropicamide
 parasympatholytic that produces short acting mydriasis and cycloplegia
 Instillation of a long-acting cycloplegic agent can relax any ciliary muscle
spasm that can cause a deep aching pain and photophobia
 used to treat anterior uveitis, decreasing risk of posterior synechiae and
decreasing inflammation in the anterior chamber of the eye
Side Effects
 transient stinging and a slight and transient rise in intraocular pressure
 cause redness or conjunctivitis (inflammation) and also blurs vision for a
short while after instillation
Tropicamide is preferred over Atropine

Atropine has a longer half-life, causing prolonged dilation and blurry vision for up to a week
Treatment- Homatropine
Homatropine
• Blocks responses of sphincter muscle of iris and muscle of
ciliary body to cholinergic stimulation, inducing mydriasis
in 10-30 min and cycloplegia in 30-90 min
• last up to 48 h
• Individuals with heavily pigmented irides may require larger
doses
DOSE: 1-2 gtt of 2% or 1 gtt of 5% solution up to qid to induce
cycloplegia and relieve ciliary spasm
CI: Documented hypersensitivity; narrow-angle glaucoma
Precaution: elderly persons w/ increased intraocular pressure;
toxic anticholinergic systemic adverse effects can occur but
are rare when used sparingly
TreatmentImmunosuppressives
For those patients who fail to respond to high-dose
systemic corticosteroids or develop intolerable adverse
effects, immunodulatory therapy
 Cyclosporine
 Mycophenolate mofetil
 Azathioprine
 Tacrolimus
 Cyclophosphamide
