Uveitis can lead to vision loss and blindness in children. It can significantly impact a child’s vision related quality of life and daily function. Outcome studies in pediatric uveitis focus on the clinical ocular exam and general measures of quality of life whereas in adults, measures of visual function are incorporated. Adequate vision can affect a child’s daily activities and is crucial for daily function in the home and school. A comprehensive approach that incorporates all aspects of disability could improve the assessment of outcomes and may help us better understand the impact of visual impairment on children with uveitis.
