Question
I would like to know how common uveitis is in SpA. My daughter has been diagnosed (10) with Enthesitis related SpA and is ANA positive (1:160). She has been screened for uveitis and is clear but what is the liklihood of her developing uveitis in the future?
Answer
This is a difficult question to answer, because of the different variations in the disease. I am presuming your daughter is young and thus might also be labeled as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis or juvenile inflammatory arthritis and thus should be screened regularly for uveitis.
