Uveitis associated with immunoglobulin E-mediated allergic diseases.
Atopic dermatitis and food allergy are typically associated with elevated IgE levels. Ocular involvement in atopic dermatitis is usually limited to the ocular surface and ocular adnexae. We herein report on the unusual association of these two conditions with uveitis in two patients and describe the ocular and systemic outcome following the institution of systemic immunosuppression.
