[Heliotherapy in iridocyclitis and intermediate uveitis].
In a pilot in 1985 we treated 45 patients suffering from recurrent anterior uveitis with heliotherapy (Dead Sea, Israel), improvements were noticed in 40% of the probants during the following year. In a further clinical trial 14 patients (25 affected eyes) received treatment with heliotherapy twice for 3 weeks with a 12 months interval. The clinical findings showed a significant correlation between administration of the therapy and intermittent inflammation of the eyes.
