A review of lesions in the optic fundus in various diseases of the blood.

چکیده
R ETINAL LESIONS have been observed in hematologic diseases since Liebreicil’ described leukemic retinitis in 1861. Most of the literature has been written from the descriptive viewpoint, emphasizing the morphologic appearance of the lesions as an aid in differential diagnosis, rather than the underlying pathophysiology. The present investigation aims to answer the following questions : ( 1 ) What is the incidence of retinopathy in diseases of the blood? ( 2 ) Is the occurrence of retinopathy in leukemia of prognostic significance? ( 3 ) What are the factors concerned with the production of these retinal changes? ( 4 ) Are the various retinal lesions specific?
