Had intermediate and posterior Uveitis for a number of years, no cause found. Likely they don't see any involvement with your retina (posterior) or iris (anterior) so think the chance of damage is low, hence the "wait and see" response. Hopefully that's a good thing, just make sure you keep it monitored closely though. If it doesn't get better you need to do something.
I have it in both eyes, but much worse in my left, good ole Ocular Sinister. Luckily I've been quiet for the longest time since it started currently. But even when I was mildly flaring I would have occasional pain in my left eye. Got the same answer, "posterior/intermediate Uveitis isn't painful..." I think that is the standard answer, but have heard several others that have had pain. So I think it's possible.
I have found a small cold compress on the eye can help with my pain. Something like.

Never really had discharge or dry eye so can't help there.
Does remind of one of my more interesting visits to the eye hospital. Had a bad day and my eye was hurting bad. Got fed up and called my doctor and basically said, "I know you said that pain isn't part of this disease, but my eye is fucking killing me and I'm having a hard time getting anything done". They told me to come right in and explained that the one thing that can cause pain is Posterior Scleritis. Got there and was told that they need to do an ultrasound of my eye to see if I have this. Ultrasound lady starts the procedure to see if I have a boy or girl inside my bad eye. After a couple of minutes she steps out and grabs a doctor to look at it. Couple minutes later that doctor grabs another doctor. They all sit and stare at what this machine is showing and talking in hushed tones. Goes on for some time. I'm thinking this can't be good, what now. They won't tell me anything. Go back and see my main Doc. She says they found almost everything wrong with your eye we already knew about, but not the one thing that is supposed to cause pain. Sorry we don't know...
Luckily once they found the right drug to clear it up, the pain is almost non-existent.
