Iritis is the inflammation of the iris. If this is associated with inflammation of the choroid, it is called as uveitis (pronounced as you-v-i-tis). Many times retina also gets infected, termed as chorio-retinitis (Pronounced as ko-rio -retinitis) Causes Infections like Tuberculosis, Leprosy, Herpes virus infection, AIDS, Toxoplasmosis etc. Non- infectious causes like eye injury, Sarcoidoisis, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis etc. How do I know it is Iritis? Besides redness, there will be pain in the eye, watering, photophobia (inability to withstand day-light), decreased vision . This tells you that it is not likely to be just Conjunctivitis. To distinguish it from glaucoma, you will have to go to an eye-doctor and get your eye examined. He will take the eye pressure, examine you on the slit-lamp and then will make the diagnosis.
Management
Tests are required to know the cause so, treatment can be given accordingly. Blood tests, skin tests, X-ray Chest may be done.
Treatment
Steroid eye drops Any inflammation in the eye will cause scarring, which will hamper vision. To avoid this, the inflammation has to be urgently controlled.

Iritis (eye-RYE-tis) is an irritation of the iris in your eye. The symptoms of iritis include light sensitivity, red eye, blurred vision, tearing, pain with reading, pain and sometimes floaters. The pupil may appear smaller in the affected eye when compared to the normal pupil. Frequently, iritis is a recurrent problem; after a few episodes, patients become very astute at early diagnosis. Iritis is sometimes confused with conjunctivitis, a much less serious disorder of the clear outer lining of the eye.(1)

IRITIS AND UVEITIS
WHAT IS THE UVEA? The eye is made of 3 coats. The middle coat is called the uvea. It consists of the iris in the front, the ciliary body a little further back (pars plicata + pars plana,) and the choroid at the back behind the retina. WHAT IS UVEITIS? Uveitis is a broad term referring to inflammation of any of the components of the uvea. WHAT TERMS ARE USED? Iritis occurs when the iris is inflamed. Cyclitis occurs when the ciliary body is inflamed. Pars planitis (peripheral uveitis) occurs when the pars plana is inflamed. Choroiditis occurs when the choroid is inflamed. Panuveitis refers to inflammation of all the components together DOES THE UVEA GET INFLAMED ON ITS OWN? Not always. Although pure forms do occur there can be associated inflammations of neighboring structures e.g. keratouveitis = inflammation of the cornea and uvea together, retinochoroiditis = inflammation of the retina and choroid together. Also uveitis is often associated with vitritis (inflammation of the vitreous gel.) WHAT IS COMMON IRITIS?

http://www.uveitis.net/newpage3.htm
The Uveitis Information Group What is Iritis? or Anterior uveitis? Please use these factsheets as background information to help discussion with your doctors. Individual cases may vary enormously and so the best information will always come from your doctors. The information in this sheet has been checked for accuracy by leading Uveitis Specialists. Anterior Uveitis is the most common form of uveitis, accounting for 75% of cases of Uveitis. It will often be referred to as Iritis as the iris is the part of the uvea that is usually inflammed. (the ciliary body may also be involved and this would be termed iridocyclitis). SYMPTOMS
  • Redness of the eye. Pain Photophobia (a need to avoid.bright light) - the iris muscles shrink the pupil size in bright light and this movement in the inflammed iris causes pain. Blurring of vision (if the inflammation is severe).
N.B. Some or all of these symptoms may not be present at all. Fortunately, for most people, Anterior Uveitis is the most readily treated of the uveitic conditions. It usually responds to treatment quickly but it often recurs regularly. It will usually not lead to any significant vision loss.

Iritis Options What is iritis?
Iritis is the inflammation of the iris, the coloured portion of the eye. It has been known cause extreme pain, light sensitivity and sight loss, which is often the result of a disease in another part of the body. Most cases of iritis are recurring, in what are small attacks. Once treated the attack will usually respond to various medications. However, the condition may become sight threatening when left untreated. Medication for iritis varies, treatment that works for one will not always work with another.
What is the iris?
The iris is a circular muscle near the front of the eye. Besides giving colour to the eye, the iris controls the amount of light that enters the eye through the pupil. The iris is located behind the cornea (the clear protective layer of the eye) and just in front of the focusing lens. To see clearly, the proper amount of light must enter the eye. Just as the shutter controls the amount of light that enters a camera, the iris regulates the amount of light that enters the eye. The iris contains two muscles that control the size of the pupil opening. When too much light is present, the muscles cause the pupil to become smaller to reduce excessive light and glare. In dim light or at night, the muscles make the pupil larger to increase the amount of light entering the eye.

What Is Iritis?

The iris is the colored part of the eye you look at when you say a person has blue or brown eyes. Its function is to change the size of the pupil, the black-looking opening in the center that allows light to enter the eye. Iritis is an inflammation of the iris. It can occur in one eye or, less commonly, in both. Iritis is a serious condition, so do not treat it casually or ignore it, hoping it will go away by itself.
Symptoms
There may be no symptoms at all. Or, an eye with iritis may look “bloodshot” and may be extremely uncomfortable in bright light, sunlight, or the glare of automobile headlights. Pain or aching in the eye or brow can occur from the tightening of inflamed muscles as they constrict the pupil in bright light. The red color comes from congestion of blood vessels on the outside surface of the eye, which is a reaction to the inflammation. There may also be some blurring of vision.

Sight loss can be prevented since iritis is an inflammation inside the eye, the condition is potentially sight threatening. Proper diagnosis and prompt treatment of iritis are essential. To minimize any loss of vision, the patient should have a complete eye examination as soon as symptoms occur. If diagnosed in the early stages, iritis can usually be controlled with the use of eye drops before vision loss occurs. If you are experiencing the symptoms of iritis or have other vision problems, you should obtain a complete eye examination.

Iritis/ Iridocyclitis DEFINITION:
§ Iritis is uveitis, inflammation of the uveal tract, predominantly affecting the iris.
§ Iridocyclitis involves inflammation of the ciliary body as well as the iris. CLASSIFICATION
§ Acute: sudden symptomatic onset, persisting for 6wks or less
§ Chronic: lasts for months or year, can be asymptomatic. Chronic uveitis is usually associated with systemic disorders including ankylosing spondylitis (also associated with acute anterior uveitis), Behçet's syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, Reiter's syndrome, sarcoidsis (granulomatous), syphilis, tuberculosis, and Lyme disease. A blood work-up may be indicated (i.e. HLA-B27 for ankylosing spondylitis or Reiter's) or a chest X-ray (sarcoidosis or tuberculosis).
§ Exogenous: external uveal injury or invasion of microbes from outside the patient
§ Endogenous: microbes or other agents from within the patient
§ Granulomatous: has large 'mutton fat' keratic precipitates
§ Non-granulomatous: smaller keratic precipitates SYMPTOMS
