The polyetiological nature of uveitis, the role of systemic mechanisms and the impact of environmental factors (improper operation, horse feeding) in its development and course determine the complex nature and complexity of the problem of this disease. The latter is directly related to the lack of knowledge of the predisposing triggering factors of the immunological mechanisms in the development of uveitis. Despite the high frequency of this pathology in horses, the spread and risk factors for the occurrence and development of uveitis have not been determined, the diagnostic criteria and the prognostic significance of clinical signs have not been studied. All of the above dictates the urgent need to develop a system of evidence-based approach to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of uveitis. In this regard, it is very relevant to study the immunological mechanisms of the course of ERU, control over their condition and targeted impact on the prevention of complications.
