Both eyes. Worse in my right. I have some permanent vision loss in my right due to my 1st and hopefully last bout of iritis.

Iritis-One eye- right only- twice (long time ago, have been lucky). (Side note-currently have Uveitis - posterior, not anterior or iritis)for the first time-both eyes at the same time unlike my two bouts with Iritis).

I've had seven iritis.....all within three years. Two on the left and five on the right, but never both eyes at the same time.
It's been about 7 years since I had my last one (knocks on wood!!).
