The most important elements of the eye in immunity are cornea, aqueous humour, choroid, retina, conjunctiva and lacrimal gland. Among immune reactions in the eye one can enumerate innate, as well as adaptive mechanisms, with the special attention to local immunity systems in the eye, such as conjunctiva-associated lymphoid tissue (CALT), lacrimal drainage-associated lymphoid tissue (LDALT) or eye-associated lymphoid tissue (EALT).
