Uveitis is the inflammation of middle layer of eye commonly known as uvea. Uvea consists of pigmented and non pigmented tissues which are present in the middle layer of the eye. The uvea is also known as uveal tract. The uveal tract is important for eye nutrition and for reduction of glare of light which enters into the eye through absorption of the light. In addition, uvea also helps in aqueous humour generation and eye lens protection. The uvea consists of choroid, iris and ciliary bodies. Choroids exist between the retina and the white part of the eye. Choroid helps in blood flow to the deep layer of the retina. Iritis, an inflammation of iris, is the most common form of uveitis. Anterior uveitis, posterior uveitis, intermediate uveitis and pan uveitis are some of the types of uveitis. Anterior uveitis involves inflammation of front part of eye. It is the most common type of uveitis and affects young and middle age people. Posterior uveitis includes the choroid, a layer of connective tissues and blood vessel in the middle part of the eye. Posterior uveitis results into inflammation of back part of uvea. Blurred vision, eye pain, redness of eye, dark floating spot in vision and sensitivity to light are some of the symptoms for the uveitis.
