Purpose: The authors report a38-year-old woman with primary Sjogren's syndrome who initially showed recurrent blurred vision caused by uveal effusion syndrome and later developed dry mouth, dry eyes, and arthralgia. During the 5-year-course of disease, the patient's 3-time-onset was all manifested as blurred vision after decreased immunity. Despite the initial absence of sufficient immunological evidence, the final presence of positive serum anti-SS-A, rheumatoid factors, ANA, and inflammatory findings in minor salivary gland biopsy indicated primary Sjogren's syndrome.Methods: Retrospective review of a case note.Conclusions: The manifestation of UES requires further exploration of its real pathogenesis, and the possibility of systemic disease should never be excluded.
