About the trial
What the trial wants to find out

However, due to the limitation of the amount of ocular samples, it is difficult to make a rapid and effective diagnosis of infection.Current study is to explore the infective cause of uveitis in China by using a broad diagnostic approach of detection.
The 2 groups in the trial
- infectious uveitis
Patients suffering from suspected infectious uveitis, who have vitrectomy performed for diagnostic purpose or anterior chamber tap
- Control group
Patients suffering from either cataract surgery or vitrectomy who has been ruled out for infectious ocular diseases
