Uveitis - Epidemiology Forecast to 2029

Uveitis is a condition characterized by the inflammation of the uveal tract (iris, ciliary body, and choroid), but can also cause the inflammation of nearby tissues, such as the retina, the optic nerve, and the vitreous humor. Uveitis can affect one or both eyes. It primarily affects people ages 20-60 years, but can present at any age (National Eye Institute, 2019; Medscape, 2020). Uveitis is an important cause of blindness and visual loss in many communities (Wakefield and Chang, 2005). In most cases, the etiology remains elusive and is often of an autoimmune nature. In instances where the etiology is known, infectious agents or trauma are important causes.

The report includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for the diagnosed incident and diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis segmented by sex and age (ages ≥18 years). The diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis are further segmented into anatomical site of inflammation (anterior, intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis), then by etiology (infectious, non-infectious, and idiopathic), severity (mild and moderate, and severe), and laterality (unilateral and bilateral). The following data describes epidemiology of uveitis. In the 9MM, the publisher epidemiologists forecast an increase in the diagnosed incident cases of uveitis in adults from 719,115 cases in 2019 to 780,725 cases in 2029, at an AGR of 0.86%. The diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis in adults in the 9MM are expected to increase from 1,687,303 cases in 2019 to 1,851,766 cases in 2029, at an AGR of 0.97%. Women accounted for more diagnosed incident and diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis than men in the 9MM and it predominantly affects older adults. These findings are in line with the publisher's estimates.

Scope

• The Uveitis Epidemiology Report provides an overview of the risk factors and global trends of uveitis in the nine major markets (9MM: US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Japan, Australia, and Canada).
• The report includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for the diagnosed incident and diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis segmented by sex and age (ages ≥18 years). The diagnosed prevalent cases of uveitis are further segmented into anatomical site of inflammation (anterior, intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis), then by etiology (infectious, non-infectious, and idiopathic), severity (mild and moderate, and severe), and laterality (unilateral and bilateral). The model associated with this report additionally provides diagnosed incident cases of uveitis segmented into anatomical site of inflammation, etiology, course of disease (acute, recurrent, and chronic), and severity.
• The uveitis epidemiology report is written and developed by Masters- and PhD-level epidemiologists.
• The Epidemiology Report is in-depth, high quality, transparent and market-driven, providing expert analysis of disease trends in the 9MM.
