title: Pediatric uveitis.
abstract: Uveitis in children is an entity most pediatricians and ophthalmologists seldom encounter. It is prevalent in society, however, and the high incidence of sight-threatening complications in untreated children warrants a baseline knowl-edge of the diseases and disorders involved as well as a sense of when to refer to a specialist.
