A member asked:

Help docs! i'm trying to find out what causes retinal inflammation?

Dr. Hussain Elhalis answered

Specializes in Ophthalmology

Many things: There are dozens of causes for retinal inflammation and you would require a thorough eye exam, preferably by a retina or uveitis specialist. It's not really something that can be narrowed down effectively with an online consult. Good luck.
