Understanding The Issue

What Is Uveitis?

Uveitis is inflammation of the uvea - the middle layer of the eye, that includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. It occurs due to infections and autoimmune diseases.

Uveitis is a serious eye condition that causes inflammation inside the eye and leads to pain, redness, blurred vision. If left untreated, it can also cause permanent vision loss.

Advanced Uveitis Treatments We Offer

Medication

Medication is the first line of defense to treat uveitis. The type of medication depends on where the inflammation is and how severe it is. They can be prescribed in various forms:

Topical steroids: Eye drops or ointments

Systemic steroids: Oral or intravenous

Injections: Steroid injections injected in the eye

Implantable devices: A device is implanted that slowly releases corticosteroids into the eye

Benefits:
  • Effective & long-term inflammation control
  • Reduction of Macular Edema
  • Improved visual outcome

Cycloplegics

These are medications usually in the form of eye drops that dilate the pupil and relax the iris and ciliary body. They help relieve eye pain and prevent complications like iris adhesions.

Benefits:
  • Relieving pain & photophobia
  • Preventing the formation of Posterior Synechiae (where the iris sticks to the lens)
  • Reduces pain & prevent further inflammation by immobilizing the iris

Vitrectomy

If there’s a lot of inflammation or debris in the vitreous (the gel-like part of the eye), this procedure can help clear it out. Vitrectomy is an eye surgery in which the vitreous humor is removed, and is replaced with a solution to help the eye maintain its shape. It helps in managing the complications caused by severe uveitis.

Benefits:
  • Decreases inflammation
  • Decreases uveitis flares
  • Increases sharpness & clarity of vision
  • Decrease in the swelling & fluid buildup in the macula

Treating Underlying Conditions

Treatment of underlying conditions like autoimmune diseases or infections, if they are the cause of uveitis.

Benefits:
  • Treatment of Infections: If uveitis is caused by a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection, the treatment is focused on addressing the infection with appropriate medications like antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals.
  • Treatment of Autoimmune or Inflammatory Diseases: If uveitis is caused by an autoimmune or inflammatory disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or sarcoidosis, treatment involves medications to suppress the immune system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can uveitis cause permanent vision loss if left untreated?

Answer: Yes, if left untreated uveitis can lead to complications like glaucoma, cataracts, or retinal damage. These can result in permanent vision loss. Therefore, early diagnosis and proper treatment are crucial.
Answer: Unlike common eye infections, uveitis often causes deep eye pain, light sensitivity, and blurry vision. A thorough eye exam by an experienced specialist is essential for accurate diagnosis.
Answer: Yes, in many cases, uveitis is linked to autoimmune diseases, infections, or inflammatory conditions like arthritis. Blood tests or imaging may be needed to identify the specific causes.
Answer: Uveitis typically affects one eye. However, autoimmune-related uveitis can affect both the eyes over time. Regular check-ups are crucial for monitoring and early detection.
Answer: No, the treatment for uveitis depends on the cause. While steroids are commonly used to reduce inflammation, other treatment options include immunosuppressants or biologic therapies that may be needed for chronic or recurrent cases.
Answer: Chronic or recurring uveitis requires long-term management to prevent flare-ups. Certain doctors may recommend maintenance therapy, lifestyle modifications, and regular checkups to protect your vision and manage uveitis.
