Chronic Anterior Uveitis

Chronic anterior uveitis is a long-lasting inflammation of the middle layer of the eye, called the uvea, specifically the front part known as the anterior segment. It can cause eye redness, pain, blurred vision, and sensitivity to light. The exact cause is often unknown, but it may be linked to autoimmune disorders or infections. Treatment usually involves corticosteroid eye drops to reduce inflammation, along with addressing any underlying conditions. Regular follow-up with an eye specialist is important to manage symptoms and prevent complications that can affect vision.
