How common is to misdiagonise iritis with dry eye, Dr John C Hagan

Hi,
   I am suffering from eye burning sensation for last 1 year on one eye only,burning sensation is worst when using computer,

From last march (i don't know whether it existed before)  I notice a curly floater with some dot floaters which remain stationary when looked into nose region with other eye covered, typically in anterior or posterior chamber,also has some slight yellow discoloration at the tip of cornea border in that eye.

I had went to ophthalmologists for 5 times concerning this burning sensation & they dilated checked using slit lamp,every time they ignore it with some blepharitis or dry eye problem.

Is it possible to misdiagnose  iritis with dry eye/blepharitis,, i asked because of that floater.

Can iritis last for year without causing blurriness if untreated  (i have no blurriness,pain etc)

Thanks
