Immuno-ophthalmology evolved during the 20th century as a subspecialty linking ophthalmologists and immunologists. This emerging subspecialty has focused on the use of immunology to better understand and treat ocular disorders. To help the allergist/clinical immunologist better appreciate the growing field of immuno-ophthalmology, this 2-part review series (Part II: Ocular Allergy will appear in the December issue of the Journal) will provide an overview of the impact that immunology has had on our understanding and treatment of allergic and immunologic eye diseases. The current review will focus on mechanisms by which mast cells, T cells, eosinophils, cytokines, and other inflammatory constituents contribute to the unique features of eye disease and their link to allergic responses that occur in other organs of the body.
免疫眼科在20世纪逐渐发展成为连接眼科医生和免疫学家的一个亚专业。这个新兴的亚专业专注于利用免疫学来更好地理解和治疗眼部疾病。为了帮助过敏症专科医生/临床免疫学家更好地了解免疫眼科这一不断发展的领域，这个两部分的综述系列（第二部分：眼部过敏将发表在《杂志》的12月刊）将概述免疫学对我们理解和治疗过敏性和免疫性眼病所产生的影响。当前的综述将聚焦于肥大细胞、T细胞、嗜酸性粒细胞、细胞因子和其他炎症成分导致眼病独特特征的机制，以及它们与身体其他器官发生的过敏反应之间的联系。
