Uveitis Uveitis Uveitis is the inflammation of the uvea, the pigmented layer that lies between the inner retina and the outer fibrous layer composed of the sclera and cornea. The uvea consists of the middle layer of pigmented vascular structures of the eye and includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. Uveitis is an ophthalmic emergency and requires a thorough examination by an optometrist or ophthalmologist and urgent treatment to control the inflammation. It is often associated with other ocular problems. Uveitis is classified anatomically into anterior, intermediate, posterior, and panuveitic forms—based on the part of the eye primarily affected.

Development of the human cerebral cortex in this area is where neurons, that are created in the ventricular zone, migrate through in order to reach the cortical plate. This zone is only present during corticogenesis and eventually transforms into adult white matter. The ventricular and subventricular zones exist below the intermediate zone and communicate to other zones through cell signalling, also creating neurons destined to migrate to other areas in the cortex. The marginal zone, along with the cortical zone, make up the 6 layers that form the cortex. This zone is the predecessor for layer 1 of the cortex. Astrocytes form an outer limiting membrane
