All support group meetings are open and we encourage patients, friends, and family members to join us. The group is free. Please read the ground rules and goals of the support group below. Support groups are not analytic in nature. They do not delve into the past but focus on the present situation.
History is acknowledged only as it pertains to the present situation.
Relationships between group members are not the focus, but helping each other deal with the external issues and the crisis of uveitis. There is little confrontation or interpretation of interpersonal group relationships. It is not appropriate to present complaints about past and present care. To provide education regarding uveitis and to help cope with disease. To provide support by sharing experiences related to living with uveitis.
