Left Eye Uveitis - Cause Unknown
In June, I was riding in a car when I experienced a huge floater in my left eye that looked like a large tree branch in my eye. Within an hour, it dissolved, but I still have a large floater in my left eye's left periphery.

The emergency room diagnosed me with Uveitis that night.

My doctors say it is mild, but they still have me using the pred forte and coming in for pressure checks. I have had an xray, 14 viles of blood work, and a TB test. Nothing so far.

About six months before this happened, I took a new job in the basement of a 42 year old building. Could there be allergens in the air that could cause this that my doctors might be overlooking?

Thanks.
