Pars Planitis
I am 49 years old and I have Par Planitis. I was wondering if there are any new treatments? I have been using steriod drops for a year and have had injections. However, the injections were causing cataracts to start to form so no more injecions for now. This is a very frustrating disease. Please any help would be appreciated.
I also suffer from Pars Planitis. There are a few treatment options available. I have been on a drug for the last 6 years, that has really helped to stabilize my inflammation.
