EMERGENCY

Uveitis is a medical emergency. For this reason, it is vitally important to visit your nearest hospital emergency room in case of presenting symptoms. They will provide you with the appropriate assistance to handle your case. Similarly, making an appointment with an ophthalmologist subspecialized in ocular immunology and uveitis is essential to avoid the development  of future complications.
