Ocular inflammatory diseases can present as isolated conditions but also as part of systemic inflammatory diseases. Anterior uveitis is closely related to SpA and shares the common genetic background of HLA-B27. Other ocular manifestations, such as episcleritis and scleritis, may also occur, although less frequently. Therefore, ocular involvement has been included as one of the important clinical features of SpA in the recently published classification criteria for axial and peripheral disease. However, there are a wide variety of aetiologies for ocular diseases and this must be considered in assessment of SpA.
眼部炎性疾病可单独出现，也可作为全身性炎性疾病的一部分出现。前葡萄膜炎与脊柱关节炎密切相关，且具有共同的HLA - B27基因背景。其他眼部表现，如巩膜外层炎和巩膜炎，也可能发生，尽管频率较低。因此，在最近发布的轴向和外周疾病分类标准中，眼部受累已被列为脊柱关节炎的重要临床特征之一。然而，眼部疾病的病因多种多样，在评估脊柱关节炎时必须予以考虑。
