Foster (ophthalmology, Harvard Medical School) and Vitale (ophthalmology and visual sciences, U. of Utah) bring together an international group of eye specialists for 83 chapters on the diagnosis and treatment of uveitis. They outline basic principles, including anatomy, histology, embryology, etiology, definitions, classification, epidemiology, and basic immunology; their diagnostic and therapeutic approach, which involves imaging studies, various drugs, chemotherapy, and surgery; and the diagnosis and treatment of infectious and noninfectious uveitic diseases, masquerade syndromes, and other uveitic entities. This edition has new chapters on clinical trials and evidence-based medicine, emergent viral infections, other vector-borne parasitic infections, pediatric uveitis, and pregnancy.
