Brief Answer:
High TLC with elevated polymorphs indicates bacterial infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
A white blood cells count of 15,200 and polymorphs comprising 82% indicates a focus of bacterial infection in body.
Uveitis and glaucoma are chronic conditions and are unlikely to raise percentage of polymorphs.
ESR of 20 mm in 1st hour is normal for males.
In uveitis, a raised ESR is expected.
You need to consult your primary healthcare provider to look for evidence of infection.

Thanks and take care
