Abstract :

The British Ophthalmological Surveillance Unit (BOSU) mails reporting cards monthly to 1,149 senior UK ophthalmologists, who are requested to report incident cases of specified rare diseases. An overview of BOSU will be presented. I was the primary investigator of a nationwide study to determine the incidence and demographic profile of uveal effusion syndrome (UES) and to describe the visual and anatomic outcome following deep sclerectomy or vortex vein decompression. Results over two years of this study will be presented.
