Summary

This study tests whether a special eye scan (OCT) can accurately measure inflammation inside the eye in people with uveitis, an inflammatory eye disease. Researchers will scan 1,500 patients with active or inactive uveitis to see if the scan can replace the current method of grading inflammation. The goal is to make monitoring the disease easier and more objective.
