    Abstract:
    The Felty syndromme is a rare clinical form of the rheumatoid poliarthritis, which involves, besides the articular manifestations specific to the latter, other manifestations such as: splenomegalia with hypersplenism, poliadenopathy, ulcerations at the low leg level and skin pigmentation. In some cases, the Felty syndromme may be associated with ocular modifications: episcleritis, nodular scleritis, corneal ulcer, Sicca syndromme, iridocyclitis, retineal vasculite. A clinical observation of Felty syndromme associated with ocular modifications is presented. Some aspects regarding the nosologic classification of Felty syndromme, its clinical and ethiopathogenical particularities are discussed; the accent is put on the immunopathological component. The ocular modifications particularities, their diagnosis and the therapeutical aspects are presented.
