Overview
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for uveitis for the general population. For patients diagnosed with or suspected of having juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), screening guidelines have been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the British Society of Paediatrics and Rheumatology (BSPAR).
Screening
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for uveitis for the general population. For patients diagnosed with, or suspected of having juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), screening guidelines have been recommended based on the AAP, Cincinnati Children's Hospital, and the BSPAR. Screening for uveitis in children with JIA is recommended as follows:
Patients should be referred at the time of diagnosis or suspicion of JIA, and a slit lamp ophthalmologic examination be performed within one month to 6 weeks of referral. It is recommended that after the initial screening examination, regular follow-up screenings be maintained based on risk category and classification.
