Anterior Scleral Thickness in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Sjögren’s Syndrome: A Comparative Analysis

RA is associated with localized alterations in anterior scleral morphology, while SjS does not appear to significantly affect these parameters. These findings may reflect the impact of timely diagnosisand effective immunosuppressive therapy in limiting ocular tissue involvement. However, the absence of a standardized anatomical reference point for scleral thickness measurements complicates direct comparison among scientific studies.

Abstract

RA is associated with localized alterations in anterior scleral morphology, while SjS does not appear to significantly affect these parameters. These findings may reflect the impact of timely diagnosisand effective immunosuppressive therapy in limiting ocular tissue involvement. However, the absence of a standardized anatomical reference point for scleral thickness measurements complicates direct comparison among scientific studies.
