The Uveitis Clinical Study Group is a UK-based organisation set up by clinicians to support clinical research in uveitis and scleritis throughout the UK.
🌍 Can’t make it onsite for #EULAR2026? We’re bringing the Congress to you.

Managing uveitis often involves complex treatment decisions requiring close collaboration between multiple specialists, patients, and their families. Staying current with evolving evidence allows uveitis specialists to lead informed, patient-centered care.
Mounting evidence links gut, oral, and ocular #microbiomes and their metabolites to ocular surface disease, glaucoma, uveitis, AMD, and diabetic retinopathy, with implications for pathogenesis and future ophthalmic care.

Presented at #ASCO26:
Among patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib led to significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy. Full phase 3 RASolute 302 trial results: https://t.co/xwLWBZYRzq

Cancer drugs can save lives, but sometimes the eye gets caught in the crossfire.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors switch the immune system on to fight cancer, but occasionally this can cause eye inflammation.
Red eye, pain, light sensitivity, blurred vision or floaters? Tell your #oncology team.

Children diagnosed with noninfectious #uveitis had an approximately 7-fold greater risk of developing immune-mediated inflammatory diseases compared with the general pediatric population. https://t.co/K9co1pDXBn

Have a case you can’t stop thinking about? Share it.
The Young Uveitis Society is launching our first Grand Rounds — and we’re looking for compelling uveitis cases of all kinds.
✨ Trainees especially encouraged

🚨 HEALTH ALERT: Do you prep raw seafood at home?
A newly reported eye condition, POH-VAU, has been linked to CMNV, a virus found in aquatic animals including shrimp/fish which has jumped to humans.
This is a severe, treatment-resistant eye disease that can lead to vision loss, and 70 cases have been identified. More info ⬇️
Key:
🔥 Cook seafood thoroughly (heat kills the virus!)
🧤 Wear gloves when handling raw fish, shrimp, or crab
🧼 Wash your hands aggressively
🚫 NEVER touch your eyes while prepping food!

Sarcoidosis is not just a lung disease.
Here are 4 clues OUTSIDE the chest you shouldn’t miss:
• Red eye / uveitis → may be first presentation
• Parotid swelling → not always infection
• Unexplained ↑ ALP → silent liver involvement
• Recurrent stones + hypercalciuria → think granulomas
Miss these → you miss the diagnosis.

Are uveitis and psoriasis independently associated with greater spinal radiographic progression in ankylosing spondylitis? Test your knowledge in the latest RheumIQ quiz at https://t.co/N5rfozh757
UVESCREEN1 explores whether AS-OCT could offer a child-friendly, imaging-based alternative to slit-lamp surveillance for JIA-associated anterior #uveitis, which is an often silent but sight-threatening disease. This feasibility RCT will inform future trials on detection, QoL and resource use. @lolaeyedoc

Live from the Lomond auditorium: Heberden Round delivered by Prof Karl Gaffney at #BSR26.
A key moment in the programme as we come together to open this year’s conference and celebrate excellence across rheumatology.
The uveitis gang at #BSR2026: delighted to join my pal @uveitisharry
speaking to rheumatology residents and fellows about spondyloarthritis and eye disease - diagnosis, pitfalls, management etc...
These conditions sit firmly at the eye-systemic axis, and patients benefit most when ophthalmologists and rheumatologists work closely together across referral pathways, biologics decisions and long-term care 🙏🏻🫂

World Uveitis Day shines a light on a sight-threatening, often overlooked group of diseases linked to systemic inflammation. Raising awareness means earlier diagnosis, better care, and preventing avoidable blindness.

Euretina is saddened to mark the passing of our former President, Dr Jan van Meurs.
A leader in vitreoretinal surgery and a generous mentor, his impact on the field and our community will endure.
Our sincere condolences to his family.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionised cancer treatment, but with that comes an expanding spectrum of immune-related adverse events
I spoke about ocular toxicities including dry eye, #uveitis, and the increasingly described VKH-like syndrome.
