IgA Vasculitis & eye ulcer

[Chakra111]

Hi all,

Just looking for advice.

Diagnosed IgA Vasculitis, recently had eye problems, seen at eye clinic. It is an eye ulcer & infection. Does anyone know if eye ulcer are connected to vasc? As no one can tell me.

Thanks 😊

may help answer your question. But I think it depends on what type of ulcer. You can develop ulcers even without vasculitis and some of the causes are likely to be more common if you have an autoimmune disorder - such as dry eyes and that can reinforce other causes.
