Just use an effective treatment like copper or hypo to kill ich.
Does UV make copper more toxic?

I have never had problem with straight copper when using UV.

Would UV affect cheleted copper?

I have not used a cheleted copper for over 25 years so I can't say for sure.

The use of the UV during eradication of ich is to reduce the chance of bacterial infection during treatment against ich, when stocking new fish per se.
