10 Uveitis Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #8: Decreased Vision
Decreased vision occurs when there is a loss of vision that cannot be corrected with eyeglasses. The vision loss can be complete or partial. Some common causes of decreased vision include age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and cataracts.
In uveitis, vision loss is often associated with blurry vision. Some may recover with treatment, while damage to the eye can occur in intermediate and posterior uveitis due to the chronic and recurrent inflammation in the optic nerve and retina. Individuals with decreased vision should seek medical attention as soon as possible for early diagnosis and treatment.
