    Summary

    Ocular symptoms can signal severe systemic diseases. Early eye exams during hospitalization may reveal critical, life-threatening conditions before other signs appear.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology and Systemic Disease Diagnosis

    Background:

    • Establishing early diagnosis for severe systemic diseases can be challenging.
    • Ocular manifestations are sometimes the first indicators of underlying pathology.

    Observation:

    • Two clinical cases are presented where patients were hospitalized for ophthalmological therapy.
    • During hospitalization, thorough clinical examination and paraclinical investigations were performed.

    Findings:

    • Unexpected findings revealed severe, life-threatening systemic diseases.
    • These critical diagnoses were made in the absence of any other apparent symptoms at the time.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of comprehensive evaluation in ophthalmology patients.
    • Suggests that ocular onset can be a crucial diagnostic window for systemic diseases.
    • Emphasizes the potential for early detection of vital risk conditions through eye examinations.
