PURPOSE: To describe the pattern of uveitis in patients seen at the uveitis clinic of the East Avenue Medical Center, Philippines.
METHODS: Clinical records of patients seen from January 2010 to June 2015 were reviewed. Data collected included demographics, clinical presentation, associated systemic disease, work-up, and diagnosis.
RESULTS: A total of 595 records were reviewed. The mean age at presentation was 38 ± 18.4 years. The majority of the cases were unilateral and chronic. Anterior uveitis was the most common, followed by panuveitis, posterior uveitis, and intermediate uveitis. Uveitis was idiopathic in 54.1%, while specific diagnosis was found in 45.9%. Infectious cause of uveitis was found in 25.6% with tuberculosis (TB) being the most common followed by toxoplasmosis. Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) was the most common cause of non-infectious uveitis followed by Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHI).
CONCLUSIONS: In a tertiary hospital in the Philippines, the most common causes of uveitis were TB, VKH, toxoplasmosis, FHI, and sympathetic ophthalmia.
