Abstract:
Ocular manifestations often serve as critical indicators of underlying systemic diseases, providing valuable diagnostic and prognostic information. This comprehensive review aims to elucidate the complex interplay between ocular symptoms and systemic conditions, emphasising the importance of early recognition and interdisciplinary collaboration in patient management. The review encompasses various systemic diseases, including cardiovascular, autoimmune, infectious, neurological, endocrine, hematologic, genetic, dermatologic, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, and connective tissue disorders, highlighting their specific ocular manifestations. Diagnostic approaches, including ophthalmologic examination techniques, imaging modalities, and laboratory tests, are discussed to enhance diagnostic accuracy. Furthermore, the review outlines current management and treatment strategies, emphasising the need for a multidisciplinary approach to care. Emerging therapies and future research directions are also explored, underscoring the necessity of continued innovation in this field. This review aims to improve clinical practices, promote integrative healthcare, and ultimately enhance patient outcomes by providing a detailed overview of ocular manifestations in systemic diseases.
