Understanding Uveitis:
Uveitis refers to the inflammation of the uvea, which includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. This condition can be anterior, intermediate, posterior, or panuveitis, depending on the specific part of the uvea affected. Uveitis can result from infections, autoimmune disorders, or underlying systemic conditions.
