Observations: In this report, we present a case of a suspected ustekinumab-associated recurrent sclerouveitis.

Purpose: Biologics have proven to be essential therapeutic agents in immune-mediated systemic diseases. Ophthalmologic adverse effects have been reported in the use of more traditional agents, such as TNF-alpha inhibitors, but there are limited data on ocular side effects associated with the newer generation of biologics.
