Catching the therapeutic window of opportunity in early initial-onset Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada uveitis can cure the disease

Purpose Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada (VKH) disease is a primary autoimmune granulomatous choroiditis that begins in the choroidal stroma. The aim of this review was to gather a body of evidence for the concept of a window of therapeutic opportunity, defined as a time interval following initial-onset disease during which adequate treatment will substantially modify the disease outcome and possibly even lead to cure, similar to what has been described for rheumatoid arthritis.
