ocular manifestation of systemic disease

1. Ocular Manifestations Of
Systemic Diseases

2. INTRODUCTION
 The eyes are frequently involved in diseases
Affecting the rest of the body.
 Ocular manifestations in certain multisystem
Disorders may offer a diagnostic clue.

3. Eye examination
 Vision
 External – Look at eyelids, make sure everything looks normal.
 Pupils
 Relative afferent papillary defect
 See if pupils are reacting normally
 Motility – Have the patient look up, down, right and left.
 Exam of anterior segment
 Dilated ophthalmoscopy – Examine retina, optic nerve, and vessels.
 Visual fields – Place you finger in different places in patient’s visual field and
ask him if he sees it. Test one eye at a time.
