Answer
I hope you are being seen by an eye doctor. I am not aware of any problems with the eye with Enbrel or the other TNF drugs, Remicade and Humira with one exception. In very rare cases the optic nerve of the eye can become affected– called optic neuritis. This can be ruled out by your eye doctor.
