He takes methatrexate to keep his other eye from going bad too. On his last dr. visit the dr. saw some inflamation in his good eye.He doesn't know my son started smoking and I forgot to ask. Can smoking make his eye worse? Has anyone else experienced this?

Don't bother calling a pharmacist. Get on the phone and report this to his physician. What is affecting your son's eyes is uveitis caused by the arthritis.

The smoking is definitely not going to help the situation, but from what I've been able to learn about it, it is not recommended to smoke or drink alcohol while taking methatrexate. Call your pharmacist and ask him/her about it. They will be able to tell you a lot more.
