Uveitis

Uveitis is inflammation of the uvea, the pigmented vascular structures of the eye, including the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. Anterior, Intermediate, Posterior, and Pan-uveitis forms are distinguished depending on the location of the inflammation, which is often associated with autoimmune conditions. Other causes are infection or trauma. This service area includes diagnosis and treatment of primary, secondary and metastatic Orbital, Periorbital and Intraocular tumours, as well as post-treatment management for all conditions.
