Quality of Life Survey
If you have Uveitis and would like to take part in the Birdshot Uveitis Society's Quality of Life Survey, please click the red arrow below. You need to allow at least 30 minutes to do this survey as it is quite detailed.
Taking part will help us understand how uveitis and your medication may affect your quality of life. The results of the survey will be published on the Birdshot Uveitis Society's website at www.birdshot.org.uk.
Important news
The Uveitis Information Group is, in future, to limit its coverage primarily to Scotland, where it was founded and is based. It will be known as Uveitis Information Group (Scotland)
The reasons for this are:
- We are now working closely with a Scottish NHS managed, Uveitis Clinical Network, the Scottish Uveitis Network (SUN).
- There are now increasing differences between the Scottish and English NHS systems.
-
The welcome foundation of an English based uveitis patient support group and charity, Olivia's Vision.
- Birdshot Uveitis Society, which was part of the Uveitis Information Group will establish itself as a registered charity in it’s own right and continue to offer specialist support and information for people with Birdshot Chorioretinopathy and other similar posterior auto-immune “white dot“ syndromes.
