Anterior uveitis is inflammation inside of the eye; affecting the anterior uvea (iris and ciliary body). This disease causes redness, cloudiness, and typically squinting and a decrease in functional vision depending on the severity. Sometimes, especially in severe or untreated cases, it can cause glaucoma (increased pressure within the eye) by limiting the fluid that exits from the eye.
