Abstract :
In their interesting study, Hosseini et al[1] addressed
the proportions of causes of various types of uveitis in
patients referred to a tertiary center in northeastern Iran.
They found that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
uveitis was observed in only 2 (0.9%) patients. I presume
that the actual proportion was underestimated. My
presumption is based on the following relevant points.
