Patient's question:
I have had uveitis for 3 years and recently feel that my vision is blurry. Will it lead to blindness? If I go blind, will it affect the other eye? My other eye's vision is still okay, do I need to be treated together? Hello doctor, will uveitis cause blindness?Doctor's answer:
Recurrent uveitis can lead to blindness. Usually, if one eye has uveitis, the other eye will also be affected. It is recommended that you visit the ophthalmology department of a hospital for a follow-up examination. If the other eye also has uveitis, prompt treatment should be initiated. Pay attention to your eyes in daily life, avoid staying up late, and seek medical attention promptly if you experience discomfort. At the same time, focus on regulating your body. If you have arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis, it should be treated promptly.
