title: [Immunologic mechanisms and the effect of immunosuppressive therapy in ophthalmology].
abstract: The authors mention some immunopathological mechanisms which participate in the beginning and maintenance of activity in so-called idiopathic endogenous uveitis. They draw attention to the possibility to influence these mechanisms by immunosuppressive treatment, mention its advantages and the feasibility of risk of undesirable side-effects. The authors assume that it is useful to use corticoids and cytotoxic substances as well as the more aimed action on immunity exerted by Cyclosporine A.
