I recently was told after 30 years of chronic uveitis that its all connected to the HLA B27 gene found in my new blood work. I had never heard of this genetic connection from any doctor before. Just wondering if anyone else has and what exactly did it mean in terms of treatment.
Thank you for your time. : )

Yes, that is one of the standard tests when assessing for cause of uveitis. It can also be associated with an arthritis called ankylosing spondylitis which is associated with uveitis too.
