Abstract
R
heumatoid arthritis is very common disease to face in our everyday career so understanding it's effect in ophthalmology is vital.
In our study we are measuring the aspects of corneal biomechanical properties which may be affected in RA and the effect on IOP readings.
Eighty eyes from Forty people is included in this study with twenty RA patient and twenty age matched controls they all underwent checking ocular surface with Slit-lamp then checking the corneal biomechanical properties with the ORA, CCT with pachmetry and finally checking IOP by Applanation tonometer.
