Uvea is an inflammation inside the eye that affects a layer called the uvea, located between the white part of the eye (sclera) and the inner parts. The uvea includes three important structures:
Iris (the colored part of the eye),
Ciliary body (helps the eye focus),
Choroid (supplies blood to the retina).
In some cases, uveitis (inflammation of the uvea) can also affect the retina, optic nerve, lens, and vitreous (gel-like substance inside the eye). It can lead to serious vision problems if not treated on time.
Uveitis can be triggered by various health conditions, both internal and external. In many cases, it is linked to the body’s immune system or infections. Identifying the root cause is crucial for proper treatment. Common causes include:
Uveitis symptoms can develop suddenly or gradually, and they may affect one or both eyes. Many people mistake early signs for general eye strain, but if not treated early, uveitis can lead to serious vision issues. If you notice any of the following, it’s important to visit an eye specialist:
The uvea is the middle layer of the eye that includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. It plays a key role in eye function and blood supply to the retina.
Yes, if not treated on time, uveitis can lead to complications like glaucoma, cataract, and damage to the retina—causing permanent vision loss.
