Overview

There is no indication for surgical intervention in uveitis. Surgical management of uveitis is most commonly reserved for management of complications of uveitis or, rarely, for diagnostic purposes. Common complications of uveitis requiring surgery include cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, or band keratopathy. Common indications for the diagnostic utility of surgery in uveitis include vitreous tap, vitreous biopsy, and posterior uveal biopsy.^[1]
