Odds ratios were used to identify risk factors for ocular sarcoidosis.Results: Fourteen of 108 individuals with sarcoidosis had ocular involvement. The mean age of the 14 individuals was 56± 15 years. Seventy-one percent were female, 50% were black, and 21% were Hispanic. Twelve had uveitis of which panuveitis was the most common subtype. Five had ≤ 20/70 vision in at least one eye due to uveitis. Neurosarcoidosis was a risk factor for ocular sarcoidosis (OR 6.14, p=0.03, 95% CI 1.21– 31.09).Conclusion: Ocular manifestations occurred in a minority of individuals in a pulmonary sarcoidosis clinic in South Florida. Uveitis was the most common ocular manifestation. Neurosarcoidosis was a risk factor for ocular involvement.Keywords: neurosarcoidosis, sarcoidosis, ocular sarcoidosis, uveitis |
