Jean,
Welcome to the group!
where are you located? with loss of central vision due to uveitis, your daughter needs an Ocular Immunologist if at all possible to prevent permanent vision loss right away. I can suggest one of these very rare specialists for you if you will tell me where you live. Uveitis in kids requires very agressive therapy, not just corticosteroid eyedrops as it is VERY difficult to control. often it is related to Juvenile Ideopathic Arthritis or some other systemic illness or pathogen.
does anyone in your immediate family have any form of arthritis or autoimmune disease process going on?
Wishing your daughter the very best,
Mike Bartolatz
