My initial episode of uveitis was severe enough to cause a cataract in my left eye. The blur in that eye cannot be corrected with glasses of course. My left eye cant read any normal sized print, and cant make out any road signs...but I do fine with the right eye. Clearly my depth perception is not what it was before the uveitis....A bit inconvenient...full sunlight always causes me to close the left eye, as the blurring and bright light is like a spotlight in the face. Nothing too life altering, but I would like my vision back as it was.

My question is this....Eye doc says a lens replacement will get rid of the cloudiness....I am wondering if anyone has experienced Uveitis with an artificial lens?? could the surgery bring on an attack?? could the artificial item in my body bring on more immune activity in the area??

Has anybody on here who has uveitis, also had a lens replacement??
