#8 Rheumatoid Arthritis 

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is one of the most painful forms of arthritis around. Much like lupus, it can cause your body to take aim at the healthy tissues living in your body. You’ll experience a lot of inflammation in your joints and other areas as a result.

One of the areas in your body where you might feel the most pain is in your eyes. You’ll be blindsided by how much your eyes might hurt when you have RA.

The redness of your eyes can show an Optometrist that you might have RA. They can also spot it through any inflammation taking place in the white parts of your eyes.

The pain associated with RA can be managed through medical therapy. But it’s important for you to get an official diagnosis for the disease so that you can get the help you need.
