Abstract

Ophthalmology is considered a specialized area within medicine. Ocular manifestations of systemic diseases allow interaction with other specialties, such as rheumatology, endocrinology, infectious diseases, pediatrics and neurology. Decreased visual acuity, pain and ocular hyperemia, or dry eye sensation can be the first manifestation of systemic diseases, and therefore anamnesis can give us clues of undiagnosed diseases. The fundus examination shows blood vessels in a non-invasive way, and detected changes may also be present in other structures, such as kidneys, brain and heart. In this article, we detail the main systemic diseases that affect the eyes and their most common manifestations.
