Abstract
A total of 247 patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and allied conditions were referred for routine ophthalmological examination with particular reference to ocular rheumatoid involvement. Of these, 197 were already receiving ibuprofen before their first assessment while 50 had a baseline assessment before commencement of ibrupofen therapy. All patients were examined on at least two occasions. No macular lesions were discovered which could be directly attributed to ibuprofen therapy.Keywords
