Abstract
Sarcoid uveitis is common, mostly in a chronic form, and is prevalent in women past middle age. The onset is insidious. Inflammation is commonly mild but persists for a long period and then is complicated by the development of macular edema, cataract, and glaucoma, resulting in visual loss. The diagnosis is made according to characteristic ocular signs and systemic investigations. Effective treatment consists primarily of long-term use of steroids. Nonetheless, 15% of cases of sarcoid uveitis demonstrate an unfavorable visual outcome.
