Abstract
Aim: To study the association of ocular manifestations in patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Patients and methods: A cross sectional study comprising of 100 patients with clinical diagnosis of psoriasis of various types was undertaken. The subjects were classified into mild and severe forms based on PASI scores. Thorough history and clinical examination was done. History regarding psoriatic arthritis was provoked. All the subjects were screened for the ocular involvement by means of slit lamp examination and posterior segment evaluation. Results: In-significant results were obtained- one patient had episcleritis and 4 patients had age related cataracts. Conjunctival xerosis, conjunctivitis, and uveitis were not found in any of the patients. Conclusion: Multi-centric larger studies are required in our population living with psoriasis, to confirm the ocular involvement among them.
