description Anterior acute uveitis is the most frequent extraarticular involvement in patients with rheumatologic diseases such as spondyloarthritis and it can often be the first clinical feature. In many cases, a prompt recognition and an early referral by the ophthalmologist to the rheumatologist can be crucial for the accurate diagnosis of these disorders. On the other hand, recognition of the signs and symptoms of ocular inflammation by the rheumatologist can facilitate prompt referral to an ophthalmologist and improve patient outcomes. Comprehensive care through collaboration between ophthalmologists and rheumatologists can help with optimal diagnostic and therapeutic decisions tailored to the individual patient.
