Retinal and choroidal vascular structures are affected in axial spondyloarthritis: an optical coherence tomography study.

The present study showed that there was no significant relationship between markers and scores indicating disease activity and ChT, MT, RNFL, and GCC thicknesses. However, an increase in choroidal thickness and involvement of the retinal layers has also been demonstrated in patients with spondyloarthritis. In addition, the relationship between disease activity and retinal layer involvement is remarkable in the r-axSpA group.
