Physical and Chemical Properties of Blood in Rheumatoid Arthritis with Oculopathies

Rheumatoid arthritis is accompanied by increased parameters of bulk viscosity and relaxation time of the serum to reduce the static background (equilibrium) surface tension and angle of tensiogram, which is associated with sex of patients, the activity of the pathological process, the rate of progression, lesions of certain joints, nature of bone-destructive changes, extraarticular (systemic) symptoms of the disease, the degree of immune disorders (including levels of antinuclear and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies), and in the development of oculopathy (uveitis, scleritis, keratitis, conjunctivitis, cataract, glaucoma) violation of the adsorption-rheological properties of blood are involved
