Incidence and Prevalence of Pediatric Noninfectious Uveitis in Korea: A Population-Based Study.

This is the first population-based study investigating the largest population of pediatric patients with uveitis in Korea. The nationwide incidence and prevalence of pediatric noninfectious uveitis in 2005-2016 were 4.64 per 100,000 person-years and 8.25 per 100,000, respectively. The proportion of JIA in pediatric noninfectious uveitis was 8.7%. These population-based study findings provide a better understanding of the public health burden and aid in the planning of health-care strategies for pediatric patients with uveitis.
