I have had an eye condition for many years. It is called chronic recurring iritus and uvitis. I recently found out that my pap smear showed HPV. Could they be related?

Not normally. No.

There are some STDs that are associated with uveitis such as syphilis and Reiter's syndrome/ gonorrhoea

I dont think so. HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that has many different strains that can cause changes to the cells of the cervix and certain strains are known to develop into cancer of the cervix.
