Living with Uveitis?!
Question: Living with Uveitis!?
I'm pretty sure I'm stuck with chronic Uveitis as I have multiple cases of it a year!. Does anyone know if it is a risk to wear make up (eyeshadow/eyeliner, no more mascara for me) and is it a risk to wear contacts!? I want to prolong my flares of Uveitis as much as I can, but I hate glasses and my love of makeup is a hard thing to part with and I don't want to give them up if there is no basis to, but I would gladly if it meant I didn't have to go through this pain as often!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

"Does anyone know if it is a risk to wear make up (eyeshadow/eyeliner, no more mascara for me)"
probably not much of a risk!. both of those are external eye products, and uveitis is generally an internal problem!.
"and is it a risk to wear contacts!?"
again, probably not!. not IMO anyway!. there may be varying opinions on this
"Oh! I forgot to ask, does computer usage strain the eye and also help bring on a flare of Uveitis!?"
definitely not!.
"I've heard rumors among doctor's that anti-glare glasses are the way to go for long term computer use for Uveitis sufferers"
only b/c anti-glare might lessen the symptoms by reducing glare, not b/c glare is a causative factorWww@Answer-Health@Com
