    I have been prescribed systane eye drops as I find the medication has made a difference with dryness ie mouth/eyes etc. As for the eyes actually deteriorating do you mean by prescription? Or that you struggle more to read etc.

    Naturally I struggle more with the latter just because of the fatigue and 'brain fog' ie lack of concentration.

    Not very helpful I'm afraid but the eye drops have made a big difference 😊😊

    Since I have been diagnoed with both psoriatic and rheumatoid athritis I have had many bouts of Iritis.   Knock on wood the Humira has kept them away for quite awhile but I see an eye specialist once a year.  Yes - arthritis can affect just about every part of your body including your eyes.
