Key Points

  • This analysis investigates risk factors for ocular complications in pediatric uveitis patients.
  • Retrospective study of 133 pediatric uveitis cases
  • Examined relationships between ocular complications and clinical variables
  • Documented baseline BCVA, demographic information, and disease characteristics.
  • Low baseline BCVA is an independent predictor of ocular complications.
  • Younger age at onset and a chronic disease course are associated with increased complications.
  • Frequent monitoring is suggested for patients with lower BCVA, chronic course, and specific risk factors.

Abstract

Low baseline BCVA was the only independent predictor of ocular complications. Younger age at onset and chronic disease course were associated with complications. More frequent monitoring might be considered in patients with lower baseline BCVA, chronic course, female gender, posterior syenchiae and higher baseline PLT levels.
