As uveitis manifests in a variety of clinical [[etiologies]], differentiation must be established in accordance with the classification system for particular subtypes. [[Etiologies]] of [[Acute (medical)|acute]] [[anterior]] unilateral [[infectious]] uveitis must be differentiated from  other subtypes that cause [[conjuctival injection]], [[eye pain]], and [[photophobia]], such as [[Acute (medical)|acute]] [[anterior]] bilateral non-[[infectious]] uveitis or [[Chronic (medical)|chronic]] [[anterior]] uveitis. Diversely, [[posterior]] [[infectiou]]s uveitis must be differentiated from other subtypes that cause [[visual disturbance|visual changes]], such as [[intermediate uveitis|intermediate]] non-[[infectious]] uveitis and [[infectious]] panuveitis.

Overview

Uveitis is best described using various, concurrent classification systems. Uveitis may be classified according to anatomical location into 4 subtypes, depending on which part of the uvea is primarily affected: anterior, intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis. Based on the duration of symptoms it may be further sub-classified as acute or chronic. Upon further investigation, uveitis may be classified according to histological features of the inflammation such as granulomatous or non-granulomatous. Additionally, uveitis may be described by the laterality of the condition (unilateral or bilateral). Finally, uveitis may be classified by general underlying systemic causes such as infectious, autoimmune, drug-induced, or idiopathic.[1][2][3][4][5]

Classification

Uveitis can be described according to the following classifications:[1][2][5]

As uveitis manifests in a variety of clinical etiologies, differentiation must be established in accordance with the classification system for particular subtypes. Etiologies of acute anterior unilateral infectious uveitis must be differentiated from other subtypes that cause conjuctival injection, eye pain, and photophobia such as acute anterior bilateral non-infectious uveitis or chronic anterior uveitis. Diversely, posterior infectious uveitis must be differentiated from other subtypes that cause visual changes such as intermediate non-infectious uveitis and infectious panuveitis. Using the above model, the following is a classification of uveitis, which includes the most common subtypes:

Anterior Uveitis

Anterior uveitis can be classified according to the following presentation:[5][6][7]

Intermediate Uveitis

Intermediate may present with unilateral or bilateral involvement. It can be classified according to the following etiologies[5][6][7]

Posterior Uveitis

Posterior uveitis may present with unilateral or bilateral involvement. It can be classified according to the following most common etiologies:[5][6][7]

Panuveitis

Panuveitis may present with unilateral or bilateral involvement. It can be classified according to the following most common etiologies:[5][6][7]
