    Abstract Purpose : The relationship of Helicobacter pylori infection with ocular diseases, including anterior uveitis, has been reported. The objective of this study was to determine the presence of anti-H. pylori IgG antibodies in patients with idiopathic non-granulomatous anterior uveitis and compare the results with a control group. Methods : A prospective, comparative and cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients with idiopathic granulomatous anterior uveitis and a group of control subjects were included. The presence of anti-H. pylori IgG antibodies was determined. Chi square test was performed for comparative analysis with GraphPad Prism V5.0 software Results : 30 patients with idiopathic non-granulomatous anterior uveitis and 35 control subjects were included. In the determination of anti-H. pylori IgG antibodies, 24 (80%) patients and 19 (54%) control subjects were positive. A significant difference (p = 0.0263) was found between the groups and a odds ratio (OR) of 3.37. Conclusions : A direct relationship was found between the presence of anti H. pylori IgG antibodies and idiopathic non-granulomatous anterior uveitis. An association can be established between idiopathic non-granulomatous anterior uveitis and H. pylori infection, without this being a causal or physiopathogenic relationship.
