  • Title: Medical and Surgical Management of Equine Recurrent Uveitis.
    Author: McMullen RJ, Fischer BM.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract; 2017 Dec; 33(3):465-481. PubMed ID: 28985983.
    Abstract:
    Equine recurrent uveitis (ERU) is characterized by recurrent bouts of inflammation interrupted by periods of quiescence that vary in duration. There is little consensus on the clinical manifestations, the underlying causes, or the management. The 3 commonly recognized syndromes of ERU (classic, insidious, and posterior) do not accurately separate the clinical manifestations of disease into distinct categories. An accurate diagnosis and early intervention are essential to minimizing the effects of disease and preserving vision. There are multiple medical and surgical options for controlling ERU as long as the disease is recognized early and targeted treatment is initiated immediately.
