title: [Eye and spondylarthropathies].
abstract: Eye involvement can occur in the course of ankylosing spondylitis and other spondylarthropathies (reactive arthritis, enteropathic and psoriatic rheumatism). The most frequent presentation is an acute anterior, unilateral, relapsing, sometimes in the contralateral eye uveitis. Local treatment that associates corticosteroids and cycloplegia usually leads to a complete healing, without sequelae. Involvement of other ocular structures is rare in spondylarthropathies.
