About This Video:
In this video Joseph J. Allen, O.D., F.A.A.O., discusses the diagnosis of uveitis and the specifics of anterior uveitis. If you have ever experienced a red, painful eye that was very sensitive to bright light then check out this video. If you are researching what an iritis is, diseases associated with irits, and it’s treatments, then this is the video for you. In the video you will find a review of some ocular anatomy, clinical signs of inflammation, and how the disease is diagnosed. Doctor Allen then shares how anterior uveitis is usually treated. Among other causes, Iritis can be associated with HLA-B27 (Human Leukocyte Antigen) which may correlate to diseases such as ankylosing spondylitis, reactive arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.
