Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Noah was diagnosed with uveitis, which I believe is similar just differing parts of the eye are inflamed. Noah has improved a good bit once treatment was begun, which is his case was moisture... they talked about steroid injections, but it never came to that. We were told dry eyes make it worse so to keep his moist... and recommended that we use preservative-free drops (single use) as they don't exacerbate the problem... you get into a vicious cycle thing. Good luck. Mom to Noah PSC, UC, uveitis, osteopenia, PsA..... www.caringbridge.org/visit/noahwmartens password avail on request at chelseablue13girl@... > > So my eye started hurting A LOT yesterday.
