A member asked:
Rotating iritis from right to left eye, should i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Whenever iritis is bilateral, posterior, or recurrent, it requires a work up. There will be blood tests as well as a skin test for tuberculosis and a chest Xray. Several serious systemic diseases must be ruled out.
