Book Description
A discussion of the clinical approach to uveitis leads to extensively rewritten chapters on noninfectious (autoimmune) and infectious forms of uveitis. Also covered are endophthalmitis, masquerade syndromes, and complications of uveitis. A discussion on ocular involvement in AIDS has been included. The section on immunology describes the human immune response in terms that make it highly accessible to readers.
