The impact of central foveal thickness and integrity of the outer retinal layers in the visual outcome of uveitic macular edema.

Significantly increased CFT has a higher probability for EPIS and IZ disruption, which significantly increases the risk for irreversible visual loss in eyes with UME. Evaluating these layers' integrity by optical coherence tomography helps predict the visual outcome and make the right therapeutic decisions.
