hi Russell and welcome to the group.
did they test you for the most common cause, HLA B27? this is a form of autoimmune related uveitis. iritis is also known as anterior uveitis. have you developed any cataracts or glaucoma, cystoid macular edema or other changes inside the eye from having it for so long as well as from only using steroids to treat it?
