Abstract: Active free radicals produced following the oxidative stress have been found recently to be a requisite medium of cytokines and chemokines associated with uveitis. Oxidative stress plays a key role in infectious and non infective uveitis. Regulating or controlling oxidative stress could alleviate the symptoms of uveitis. Various antioxidants  treat uveitis through different mechanisms, such as inhibiting oxidative stress, reducing oxidative stress damage or enhancing  antioxidant capability of the organism. Antioxidant will be a new strategy for the treatment of uveitis.
