Uvea (Uveitis) Services – Specialized Care for Eye Inflammation

At Raahi Netradham Eye Hospital, we offer comprehensive Uvea (Uveitis) Services focused on the early diagnosis, precise treatment, and long-term management of inflammatory eye diseases affecting the uvea. The uvea is the middle layer of the eye that includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid, and inflammation in this region—known as uveitis—can seriously impact vision if not treated promptly.
Our experienced eye specialists use advanced diagnostic tools and evidence-based treatment protocols to control inflammation, relieve symptoms, and prevent complications, helping patients preserve healthy vision.
