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.
