Summary
Corneal transparency is a result of its unique ultrastructure with collagen fibrils regularity, integrity of connective tissue, and balanced keratocyte components. Corneal densitometry is known to be altered in cases corneal haze or scar, but recently it is assumed to be altered earlies in presence of a systemic inflammatory disease, even before clinical manifestations take place. The aim of this study is to assess changes in corneal topography and corneal densitometry in RA patients with clinically clear corneas and to compare these results with those of healthy control subjects.
