Suggest Treatment For Ocular Uveitis

Hi I m suffering from ocular uveitis. I ve been taking prednisolone and mydriacyl for about 8 months and can t seen to shake it as soon as I come off the medication the condition returns. I was curious if medical marijuana was something I could add on top of the medication to help.

Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
Ocular uveitis has many causes and the it has remissions and exacerbations..
You have to use prednisolone whenever required and it may leave some sequelae like blurring of vision and some floaters...
Keep consulting your doctor for follow up and marijuana doesn't help much in this condition..
Have a consultation with general physician also for any underlying systemic illnesses..
Hope this information is helpful to you..Will be available for further queries,..
Take care...
