i dont get your diagnosis. is it retinal detachment? because floaters is supposed to be a symptom of detachment. anyway, i suggest you seek second opinion elsewhere.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
The various causes of uveitis can be rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, idiopathic arthritis, Lyme’s disease, MS, side effects of drugs, and STDs like syphilis, herpes, cytomegalovirus and HIV. Discuss these possibilities with your doctor. Maybe treating them will halt the process. Take care!
