Eyes becoming red

2017-05-10 05:55:47
My eyes are turning red from a while continuously. After consulting eye doctor he said that there is a rheumatic problem after checking the reports. When I was 18 years old i got rheumatic arthritis. I used medicines and it stopped. Every year in winter I will be having body pains. Is there a relation between rheumatic arthritis and my eyes turning red.

Dry eye is very common in rheumatoid arthritis so your eyes are getting red often. Best solution is using lubricating drops such as lubrex or refresh tears
