PsA is associated with increased risk of uveitis. Past uveitis and treatment with etanercept were associated with higher risk of uveitis. Key Points • Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a major risk factor for uveitis with hazard ratio of 2.38 compared to healthy individuals without PsA. • Among PsA patients, the past event of uveitis and treatment with etanercept are risk factors for uveitis. • Uveitis in patients treated with biologics for their PsA requires topical therapy only in most of the cases.
