Any relationship between uti and optic neuritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: I have never heard of any relation or association between these 2 conditions. Reiter's syndrome causes urethritis(which could be mistaken for a uti), uveitis(inflammation of the pigmented middle layer of the eye), and arthritis.
