The eye disease may appear as one of the signs of a general disease in the body, which is sometimes even diagnosed for the first time thanks to the eye symptoms and after a thorough investigation that includes various tests, while sometimes it is a sole eye disease of autoimmune origin against the components of the eye. This issue includes a wide variety of studies describing various inflammatory processes in the anterior, intermediate and posterior segments of the eye. The studies report special cases, some of which are related to findings in other body systems and emphasize the pathophysiology and clinical course of the disease as well as the therapeutic challenges and treatment results.
