Prevalência de manifestações oculares em 198 pacientes com artrite reumatóide: um estudo retrospectivo

Perfil dos pacientes com manifestações extra-articulares de artrite reumatoide de um serviço ambulatorial em Curitiba, Sul do Brasil

“…A study at the same service carried out in 2007 reported a 12.1% concomitance of that syndrome. 33 The study carried out in São Paulo has reported concomitance of that syndrome in 28% of the sample, 15 while Turesson et al 6 have reported it in 11.4% of their sample. It is the most common ocular manifestation.…”

The Effect of Duration of Disease on Corneal Biomechanical Properties in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

“…[1][2][3] The ocular surface is one of the regions frequently affected by this disease. Different terms are used in RA those describe various stages of ocular involvement and extent of inflammation such as stromal keratitis, sclerosing keratitis, keratolysis, marginal furrowing or guttering and peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK).…”

“…Different terms are used in RA those describe various stages of ocular involvement and extent of inflammation such as stromal keratitis, sclerosing keratitis, keratolysis, marginal furrowing or guttering and peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK). [1][2][3] However the most common ocular manifestation of RA is keratoconjunctivitis sicca in association with or without secondary Sjogren's syndrome. 2 Since ocular response analyzer (ORA) is created in 2005 and provides information about biomechanics of cornea in vivo rather than experimental methods, there has been an increasing interest in clinical use of ORA in various diseases especially in glaucoma and refractive sur gery.…”

[4][5][6][7][8] ORA measures viscous damping capacity (viscosity) of the ground substance which gives information of corneal microstructure.…”

Evaluation of Corneal Parameters with Scheimpflug Imaging in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

“…2 Ocular involvement of the disease includes dry eye (DE), episcleritis, scleritis, anterior uveitis, and retinal vasculitis. 3 The most common and mild form of ocular involvement in RA is DE from secondary Sjö gren syndrome. Akpek et al 4 found an associated rheumatic disease in 25.9% of their DE patients in which approximately half were RA.…”
