Anyone experience cloudiness in eyes?

They're not dry but tend to get real cloudy and it's alarming

  1. Thanks for the question QTPorie. Eye issues can accompany RA or be a side effect of some medications (such as plaquinel). This article from one of our contributors takes a look at RA and eye issues: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/eyes-on-the-prize/. As with any new symptom, you should bring this to the attention of your doctor. Best, Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)

    1. Yes I did have cloudiness in my eyes and vision was not a a good as I wanted,colors dull, needing stronger reading glasses, saw eye specialist. Had cataracts and dry eyes . I think I waited to long to have cataract surgeries, now vision much better . I was. seeing eye doctors for years because of plaquenil and being a diabetic . but I think more eye specialist should realize Rheumatoid Disease scan cause eye issues also. I really had to keep going back because I felt something was not right with my eyesight.

      1. Thank you so much for your response. I will be seeing an eye doctor soon because it's only getting worst. Best of luck with your health !
