Uveitis
Users on Reddit have reported limited specific experiences regarding uveitis while on GLP-1 medications.
One user shared an anecdotal account of a co-worker on Wegovy who was "diagnosed with uveitis with no known cause (no inflammatory markers in blood lab reports or underlying autoimmune issues). "[1] This co-worker also experienced floaters, inability to focus, and blurred vision. [1]
Other users have inquired about or reported different types of eye inflammation that could be related. For instance, one user asked, "Just curious if anyone using or prescribing GLP-1 has gotten scleritis in one or both eyes since starting the drug? ". [2] Another user mentioned their cousin "tried it and within a month she had optic nerve inflammation and intracranial hypertension". [3]
One user reported a positive outcome, stating that GLP-1s "cured my eye disease," though the specific eye disease was not mentioned, nor were any remedies detailed in conjunction with this cure. [4]
The provided data does not contain specific remedies or preventions recommended by users for uveitis experienced while on GLP-1 medications. General advice for any eye issues, though not specific to uveitis, includes seeking prompt medical attention from an ophthalmologist if vision changes occur.
