Overview

Pathogenesis

The exact pathogenesis of uveitis is not fully understood. It is thought that uveitis is mediated by either genetic factors, cross immunity to infectious agents, or cross immunity to self-antigens due to underlying autoimmune diseases. Up to 35% of cases of uveitis are idiopathic.[1] Uveitis in the setting of underlying infectious diseases is hypothesized to be secondary to a T-cell mediated hypersensitivity reaction resulting in immunoactivating cytokine production by proliferating Tн17 and Tн1 cells.[2][3] A similar mechanism is hypothesized for autoimmune etiologies of uveitis with the exception of an unknown source of the triggering antigen.[4][5][6][7]
