Y1 - 2017 N1 - T2 - Vaughan & Asbury's General Ophthalmology, 19e AB - Examination of the eye provides invaluable information for the diagnosis and monitoring of systemic disease. Nowhere else in the body can a microcirculatory system be visualized directly and investigated with such precision or neural tissue be examined so easily, and nowhere else are the results of minute focal lesions so devastating. Many systemic diseases involve the eyes, and therapy demands some knowledge of the vascular, rheologic, and immunologic nature of these diseases.
