Abstract
- Sarcoidosis is a common cause of uveitis worldwide, but diagnosing it can be challenging due to overlapping symptoms with other inflammatory diseases. Diagnostic criteria have been developed to standardize the approach to diagnosing sarcoid uveitis. Recent research has focused on the performance of diagnostic tools, presentation patterns, screening for cardiac involvement, and the use of hydroxychloroquine therapy. Other studies have explored the presence of anti-retinal antibodies in sarcoidosis patients, the response to therapy, and the coexistence of other autoimmune conditions. Hydroxychloroquine has shown promise as a treatment option for sarcoid uveitis. [Extracted from the article]
