Uveitis, a potentially sight-threatening ocular inflammation, represents a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in Tunisia, where its etiological profile remains insufficiently characterized. Given the complexity of
its clinical presentation, the involvement of an internal medicine department is often crucial to identify underlying systemic pathologies. This study aimed
to describe the epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic features of uveitis managed in a specialized internal medicine setting, while identifying the specific
factors associated with disease recurrence and therapeutic failure in our local context.
