Autoimmune uveitis



Introduction: Autoimmune uveitis

A type of uveitis or inflammation of the uvea of the eye due to autoimmune disease. An autoimmune disorder is a malfunction of the immune system which causes it to attack itself. In the cause of autoimmune uveitis, the body's own immune system attacks the uvea of the eye. The uvea is the portion of the eye that lies between the outermost and innermost layers of the eye.
