Abstract
Autoimmune diseases frequently present with ophthalmological manifestations, posing significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This review delved into the complex interplay between autoimmunity and ocular health, highlighting common manifestations such as uveitis, keratitis, and optic neuritis. We explored advanced diagnostic tools and techniques to improve early detection and accurate diagnosis. Additionally, the review addressed current therapeutic strategies, emphasizing the need for tailored treatments to manage ocular symptoms effectively while minimizing systemic side effects. By overcoming these challenges we aimed to enhance patient outcomes and quality of life for those affected by autoimmune-related eye diseases.
