CHRONIC, USUALLY NONGRANULOMATOUS:
1. Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) [Usually young girls, eye may be white and without pain, often bilateral, iritis can occur before the arthritis, pauciarticular arthritis (fewer than five joints involved), positive antinuclear antibody (ANA), negative rheumatoid factor, increased ESR, glaucoma, cataracts, and occasionally fever and lymphadenopathy.]
2. Chronic iridocyclitis of children (Usually young girls, same as JRA, except no arthritis.)
3. Fuchs' heterochromic iridocyclitis (Usually unilateral, few symptoms, diffuse iris stromal atrophy often causing a lighter colored iris, iris transillumination defects, blunting of the iris architecture, fine KP over the entire corneal endothelium, mild anterior-chamber reaction, few if any posterior synechiae. Vitreous opacities, glaucoma, and cataracts are common.)
