Iritis

I have been on drops predisolone and a non-steroidal drop for a while then back to prednisolone starting in Maech for iritis. My floaters are rhe same ones everyday and won't go away and my vision is blurry. My doctor is scheduled to see me Dec. 13 and said if the inflammation is still there, which it will be I rhink, he will give me an injection in the eyes.I have had blood test he ordered and they came back normal. The inflammation is in both eyes. Have you seen cases where iritis lasts this long? It's been 9 months.

Yes, in chronic iritis it never goes away and the goal is to control the iritis much the same as one controls diabetes.
