      or without Human Leukocyte Antigen B27 in Adults - Expert Consensus in Taiwan.

AB  - BACKGROUND: Anterior uveitis is the most common anatomical type of uveitis. 
      Patients with noninfectious anterior uveitis may develop various ocular 
      complications and eventually visual impairment. Appropriately differentiating the 
      etiologies can help clinicians to predict the outcome, arrange clinical 
      follow-up, and decide the treatment or prevention strategy. Adequate treatment 
      and effective prevention strategies can reduce the frequency of recurrence and 
      the risk of developing complications. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 is the 
      most common positive finding in patients with noninfectious AAU in many countries 
      including Taiwan. PURPOSE: To report a consensus from experienced uveitis 
      specialists and rheumatologists was made in Taiwan. METHODS: A panel of nine 
      ophthalmologists from nine different referral centers with expertise in the 
      management of uveitis and an experienced rheumatologist was held on January 16, 
      2022. A comprehensive literature review was performed. Differential diagnoses for 
      etiologies, general treatments, and prevention strategies were discussed. Each 
      statement in the consensus was made only if more than 70% of the experts agreed. 
      RESULTS: A flow chart and seven statements regarding the differential diagnoses 
      for etiologies, treatments and preventions, and co-management with 
      rheumatologists were included in the consensus. CONCLUSIONS: This article 
      discusses the general diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of noninfectious acute 
      anterior uveitis, with or without HLA-B27, in adults for general ophthalmologists 
      to improve overall outcomes of these patients.
