Antiphospholipid antibodies may be associated with uveitis.

An association between aPL and uveitis among an unselected population of patients with no evidence of thrombosis or presence of the antiphospholipid syndrome was documented in this study. This link was observed, alike the general population of uveitis patients, mainly in patients with anterior eye inflammation. A possible interaction between aPL and uveitis, mediated by non-thrombotic mechanisms, requires further studies.
