Is Iritis classed as an existing medical conditon for travel insurance?

Hi, I have had 3 bouts of Iritis in the past and have been diagnosed with a gene that makes me more likely to have another occurance than someone that does not have the gene in their body, at the same time I could go for the rest of my life and never have another occurenece. I need to get travel insurance for a long trip away and was therefore wondering if Iritis is classed as an existing medical condition that should be declared? Thanks!

1. It is always best to declare existing conditions, as you are then more likely to get cover, should you need treatment whilst away from home.
2. sure -in the US, the complication of "pre existing" conditions will be moot. check with your insurer if you have further questions.
3. Yes! If you don't declare it you will never get the insurance company to pay up.
