Drugs for uveitis in Zhongshan Eye Hospital

Uveitis is a common eye disease, patients often have red eyes, blurred vision, eye pain and other symptoms. In order to provide patients with high-quality medical services, Zhongshan Eye Hospital has used a variety of drugs to treat uveitis.

First, anti-inflammatory drugs are commonly used in Zhongshan Eye Hospital. These drugs can alleviate the symptoms of eye discomfort by reducing inflammatory reaction. For example, hospitals will use glucocorticoid drugs, such as prednisone and cortisone, to inhibit inflammatory reaction and reduce eye redness and pain.

Secondly, antibiotics are also commonly used to treat uveitis. Bacterial infection is an important factor in the pathogenesis of uveitis. Therefore, hospitals often use antibiotic eyedrops or oral drugs to kill pathogens and control infection. The hospital selects appropriate antibiotics according to the different pathogens to achieve therapeutic effect.

In addition, Zhongshan Eye Hospital will also use immunosuppressants to treat uveitis. For chronic uveitis, the over activation of the immune system is an important factor. Therefore, the hospital will use immunosuppressants, such as cyclosporine A, methotrexate, to regulate the immune system, inhibit the occurrence of inflammatory reactions, and thus alleviate the symptoms of patients.

Surgical treatment of uveitis in Zhongshan Eye Hospital

In addition to drug treatment, Zhongshan Eye Hospital also provides surgical treatment for uveitis. Surgery is considered when other treatments are ineffective or the condition is serious.

First, a common surgical method is vitrectomy. The vitreous body is a transparent colloidal substance located inside the eye, which can affect vision. In patients with uveitis, the vitreous may be affected by inflammation, resulting in blurred vision. Therefore, the hospital will use vitrectomy to remove the inflamed vitreous and restore the patient's vision.

Secondly, Zhongshan Eye Hospital will also use laser photocoagulation to treat uveitis. Laser photocoagulation is to focus the energy on the pathological part of uveitis through the laser and destroy the pathological tissue, so as to achieve the therapeutic effect. This method can accurately control the range of pathological tissue and reduce the damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

In addition, Zhongshan Eye Hospital will also use anterior segment resection to treat severe uveitis. This operation can reduce inflammatory reaction and immune damage by removing the anterior segment, thus improving the symptoms of patients. As this operation is a relatively large one, the hospital will make detailed assessment and preparation before the operation.
