Abstract: The role of non penetrating trauma causing a uveitis is not well established, still. At our institution in the period of 1993-1996 year we analyzed the records in the uveits department. All patients undergo a through ophthalmic examination, as well as an examination by an internist-reumatolog. Records of four patients were reviewed for history of non penetrating trauma that the patient believed to be related to the cause of ocular inflammation. We analyzed the characteristics of that patient group and compared than to those of the uveitis clinic population as a whole (90 patients) Our observation suggest that non-penetrating trauma maybe a provoking factor in the development of intraocular inflammation.
