The aim of the study was
to assess ocular manifestations in patients with
systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The following, were
included in the evaluation: clinical condition, duration
of the disease and treatment used.
The study was performed in 100 patients with SLE.
Evaluation of the clinical condition and
opththalmoscopic findings in patients with SLE
demonstrated abnormal Schirmer tests in 41% patients,
scleritis 2%, retinopathy 7% and neuritis 1%.
Inflammatory changes in the anterior segment of the
eyeball, neuritis and retinopathy occurred solely in the
phase of exacerbation. Adverse events observed after
treatment with chloroquine or prednisone (chloroquine
