Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Assessment of optic disc morphology can be difficult in patients with uveitis and papilloedema. Therefore different optical coherence tomography (OCT) and laser scanning techniques may help to detect damage to the retinal nerve fibre layer.
