Wow I had this but mine was brought on by an allergic reaction to Levaquin. I also had graves disease which the meds (propylthiouracil and methimazole) both taken to counteract that caused me to have zero white count. I took one pill of the levaquin and instant uveitis. I went to the opthalmologist and he gave me these expensive numbing drops that helped in about a week but until than I couldn't see a thing my eyes were so sensitive to the lights.
Hello I have been suffering from Uveitis for 8 years. For the past 7 years I was recommended steroids, the eye drops and pill. But my body got addicted to the medication, and if I tried to stop the medicine, I would relapse. But now I am on Rituxan to help prevent the Uveitis from coming back, and it is working! My doctor also recommended to take cyclosporine but we decided with Rituxan. I recommend everyone to go to Dr. Stephen C. Foster he is from MERSI in Boston, MA. He saved my eyes, and he will save yours!
I just started homeopathic aurum metallicum following 2nd bout of uveitis. Uveitis has cleared within days. Please consult a qualified homeopath to find the remedy that is correct for you. It is worth looking at arum metallic personalitybtrait to see if that sounds like you. Good luck

Please get tested for lyme disease (Western Blot) if you have uveitis. Also many people with certain HLA types are prone to uveitis with lyme and co infections. Many people with lyme have compromised immune systems so that toxoplasma gondii and herpes viruses may reactivate. There is some underlying pathogen causing this.
Hi I have had anterior uveitis since October of 2011, and after getting blood work I now know that I have the HLA-B27 gene. You said in your posting that the ultimate solution was posted on 7/27/09, but I can't find that posting. Could you let me know what that advice was? To cut down on sugar and take vitamin C and E while taking FML? What is FML? I've only been on Predforte and Lotemax. Any help would be much appreciated!! Thank you!
Hi i have this myself & i am fed-up with all the drops & other medications . I am looking into Ayurveda treatments ! Is yr eye better now ??

I'm diagnosed with chronic uveitis for 8 years now. when I eat very healthy, whole foods, no sugar, no caffeine, no artificial sweeteners, etc and take supplements I am usually able to control the symptoms before I have to go on steroids. Initially, I had to do drops because the onset was so severe and no one knew what it was. but I started this super healthy diet and suppelements and within 4 months I was able to step down from drops. in 8 years I haven't had to take drops....but I believe it is directly related to my diet and overall health. Very important.
Cleopatra , so are u cured of it ??
pl guide doc for uveitis
Can you please tell the name of the pill you had given to your son. My daughter is also suffering from uveitis and cataract since 6 years. Now her age is 13.
I suffered from iritis/uveitis until I was diagnosed with Celiacs. Once I went on a gluten free diet the iritis went away, along with a lot of other health issues. Especially for the children this is a likely culprit.
Hope this helps someone,

Can you tell which tablets you had given to your son? My daughter is also suffering
Maxidex 1% eye drop, and atropine is the only medication that make my Uvieitis go away.
I WAS UNABLE TO FIND IT MAXDEX IN THE USA. I IMPORT FROM BRAZIL FOR LESS THAN $1.00 DOLLAR.
