  • Title: Canine anterior uveitis.
    Author: Wasik B, Adkins E.
    Journal: Compend Contin Educ Vet; 2010 Nov; 32(11):E1. PubMed ID: 21882168.
    Abstract:
    Canine anterior uveitis can be a debilitating, painful, vision-threatening disease. Several local and systemic diseases can cause anterior uveitis. Because the eye is limited in its ability to respond to injury, different diseases produce similar clinical signs, making an etiologic diagnosis difficult but imperative to improve the likelihood of a successful outcome. A thorough history and complete ocular and physical evaluations are necessary to ensure timely and accurate diagnosis. This article reviews the pathophysiology, most common causes, diagnostic recommendations, current therapeutic options, potential complications, and prognosis for canine anterior uveitis.
