Abstract

With few exceptions, infectious agents causing posterior uveitis in children are the same as those causing disease in adult patients. The mode of transmission, clinical presentation, and the implications of infection in children, however, may vary significantly compared to the same disease in an adult. Clinical features also vary depending on the age of the child, route of transmission, and developmental status.
