Exclusion Criteria

History of intraocular surgery in the study eye within 90 days of the screening visit, Vitreous haemorrhage, Intraocular inflammation associated with a condition other than non-infectious uveitis (e.g., intraocular lymphoma), Ocular malignancy in either eye, including choroidal melanoma, Toxoplasmosis scar in study eye; or scar related to previous viral retinitis, Previous viral retinitis, Current viral diseases of the cornea and conjunctiva including epithelial herpes simplex keratitis (dendritic keratitis), vaccinia, varicella, and mycobacterial infections of the eye or fungal diseases of ocular structure, Media opacity precluding evaluation of retina and vitreous, Peripheral retinal detachment and/or vitreoretinal traction in area of area of insertion, Prior administration of intravitreal Ozurdex within 6 months of the screening visit, Prior administration of fluocinolone intravitreal implant within 3 years of the screening visit in the study eye, Hypersensitivity to FA or any component of ILUVIEN, Viral corneal pathology in the study eye, Moderate to severe dry eye in the study eye, Ocular or adnexal infections or infectious uveitis in the study eye, Chronic hypotony (< 6 mmHg), Capsulotomy in study eye within 30 days prior to Day 1, Subjects requiring chronic systemic or inhaled corticosteroid therapy (>0.15 mg/kg daily) or systemic immunosuppressive therapy for autoimmune conditions other than Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis, Blau syndrome, Idiopathic Chronic Anterior Uveitis, Intermediate Uveitis, Idiopathic Panuveitis, History of certain skin cancers (specifically, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma), any malignancy receiving treatment, or in remission less than 5 years prior to Day 1, Systemic infection within 30 days prior to Day 1, Any severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition that could increase the risk associated with study participation or could interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, could make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study, Any other systemic or ocular condition which, in the judgment of the Investigator, could make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study, History of any form of glaucoma or ocular hypertension in study eye, unless study eye has been previously treated with an incisional IOPlowering surgical procedure at least 90 days prior to the screening visit and that procedure has resulted in stable IOP in the normal range (10- 21 mmHg)), Treatment with an investigational drug or device within 3 months prior to Day 1, Pregnant or nursing females; females of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method of contraception as outlined in this protocol from at least 14 days prior to study Day 1 until the End of Study (Month 36)., Any persons with a dependent relationship to the sponsor, the investigational site or the Investigator., Any persons held in an institution by a government or judicial order., Increased intraocular pressure >25 mmHg or that required treatment including increases in medications, surgery (other than drainage surgery), or hospitalisations, within 4 weeks prior to baseline that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would pose an unacceptable risk to the patient participating in the study, Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) < 20/200 in the study eye at screening and Day 1, History of posterior uveitis only that was not accompanied by vitritis or macular oe

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Main Objective: To evaluate safety and efficacy of ILUVIEN® 190µg in paediatric subjects with recurrent non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye;Secondary Objective: To assess the incidence of recurrence of non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment in the study eye, To evaluate the incidence and onset of secondary lens opacity and extraction, To assess the incidence of secondary intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation;Primary end point(s): Treatment success based on: 1. Absence of cystoid macular oedema on Optical Coherence Tomography AND 2. A decrease from baseline in vitreous haze grade =2 steps, or absence of vitreous haze, Rate of cataract formation, Rate of IOP elevation (Change from baseline in IOP and incidence of significant changes in IOP, including: IOP>21 mmHg, IOP>25 mmHg IOP>30 mmHg, increases from baseline of 10 mmHg or more).
