    Description Sympathetic Ophthalmia (SO) is a rare inflammatory condition that affects both eyes following trauma or surgery to one of the eyes. The immune system is sensitized to proteins from the damaged eye and then attacks those same proteins in the uninjured (or “spared” eye), leading to inflammation of the uninjured eye. Sympathetic ophthalmia is a form of uveitis. The disease can lead to blindness.
