Comparison of the clinical spectrum TB uveitis at initial presentation among 4 studies (Referred to [7,8,9]). Anterior uveitis is defined as iritis, iridocyclitis, or anterior cyclitis, with the inflammation located predominantly at the anterior chamber. Intermediate uveitis is defined as pars planitis, posterior cyclitis, or hyalitis, with predominant inflammation at the vitreous. Posterior uveitis is defined as focal, multifocal, or diffuse choroiditis, chorioretinitis, retinochoroiditis, retinitis, neuroretinitis, with inflammation primarily at choroid or retina. Panuveitis is defined as inflammation of all three locations – anterior chamber, vitreous, and choroid or retina. [27]
