Abstrakt: Purpose:Laser flare photometry is a new quantitative method for evaluating aqueous flare, making flare the only inflammatory parameter that can be evaluated precisely and objectively. The validity of the method already has been demonstrated in anterior segment inflammation. The aim of this study is to assess the validity and limitations of the method to quantify and monitor inflammation in uveitis with predominant involvement of the posterior segment.
