Inflammation can occur in the eyes. It is called uveitis when it appears.

One should see an opthalmologist and be evaluated.

Default Arthritis affects vision

In Rheumatoid Arthritis causes pain and inflammation of joints but they also put affect on the vision of the eye and the condition is known as Uveitis. If any problem is experienced in vision then you must definitely consult an doctor and get it treated.
