Re: Acuvail for iritis

I think youre right about Acuvail/nsaid. It did not work. I feel a recurrence going on. I will try giving it a drop a day of predforte.

Average frequency of iritis recurrence

So I may have an idea if my iritis is recurring as much or less than others with the same problem, could somebody please tell me the average frequency of recurrence/year for all sufferers. May I also know the average length of time between recurrences. Thank you.

That would be for a total of about 6 weeks. That was before my current doctor placed me on Acuvail. I sti...

Acuvail for iritis

My eye doctor put me on Acuvail after Prednisolone failed to fully rid my right eye of iritis. Has anyone else been placed on this eye drops which is for cataract eye surgery? Any advice about this? Thanks.
