What is Iritis?

Iritis is the inflammation of the color part of your eye. It is also called “Anterior Uveitis.”

What are the symptoms of Iritis?

Symptoms of Iritis can happen all of a sudden and develop rapidly over a few hours or days.

What is acute Iritis

Acute Iritis causes eye pain, blurred vision, headache, light sensitivity, red eyes, and vision loss.  Steroid eye drops are great for immediate intervention. With quick intervention, the outcome expected to be good.

Conventional treatment for Iritis-steroid drops

The conventional treatment for Iritis from your eye doctor will include steroid drops to control inflammation for Iritis (anterior uveitis). But Steroids cause an increase in eye pressure (Glaucoma). For some, steroids are not an option.  Iritis left untreated can cause permanent vision loss.

TheraLife’s Natural Treatments for Iritis

TheraLife Eye is a powerful natural alternative to steroids to fight Iritis -eye inflammation. Taking Theralife Eye capsules can help you prevent Iritis recurrence without the use of steroid eye drops.

Inflammation of the eye, such as from Dry Eyes and Blepharitis, can cause Iritis. It is common for people who recover from Iritis to have dry eyes. They start complaining about blurred vision, foreign body sensation, light sensitivity, and yet Iritis is no longer an issue.

Challenges with Conventional Iritis Treatment

The first line of defense for Iritis is steroid eye drops to reduce eye inflammation; and or dilating eye drops, which can reduce the pain of the iris. Unfortunately, steroid drops can cause high intraocular pressure (IOP), resulting in Glaucoma, which can cause blindness.

Examples are Ankylosing spondylitis ( a type of arthritis), Reactive Arthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Bechet’s Disease, and Psoriatic Arthritis are known to cause Iritis. Gene alteration in autoimmune diseases makes white blood cells attack one’s tissues, causing Iritis.
  • Inflammatory Infections can causes Iritis.Iritis can be related to diseases or infections, such as arthritis, tuberculosis, syphilis, tonsils, sinus, kidney, gallbladder, and teeth.
