Abstract

Small fibre neuropathy (SFN) is an under-recognised complication of SLE that contributes to chronic pain and reduced quality of life. We assessed the utility of corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) for identifying small fibre damage in SLE in relation to disease activity, neuropathic pain and quality of life.
