Uveitis: Signs and symptoms
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))

Anterior uveitis produces moderate to severe unilateral eye pain; severe ciliary injection; photophobia; tearing; a small, nonreactive pupil; and blurred vision (due to the increased number of cells in the aqueous humor). It sometimes produces deposits called keratic precipitates on the back of the cornea, which may be seen in the anterior chamber. The iris may adhere to the lens, causing posterior synechiae and pupillary distortion; pain and photophobia may occur. Onset may be acute or insidious.

Posterior uveitis begins insidiously, with complaints of slightly decreased or blurred vision or floating spots. Posterior uveitis may be acute or chronic, and it may affect one or both eyes. Retinal damage caused by lesions from toxoplasmosis and retinal detachments may occur. Refer the patient to an ophthalmologist for dilated fundus examination and treatment for local systemic diseases.
