Scleritis: Immunopathogenesis and molecular basis for therapy

Scleritis is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by inflammation of the sclera, which may be due to local or systemic infections or immune mediated diseases. Numerous studies over the last decade have lead to significant progress in understanding the pathogenesis and treatment of this severe and potentially blinding disease. Immunological investigations of non-infectious scleritis and associated diseases have indicated that scleritis...
