[Retinal manifestation in hematological diseases]. Ophthalmologe. 2018 Jun 07;: Authors: Rehak M, Feltgen N, Meier P, Wiedemann P Abstract Hematological diseases can lead to ocular manifestations. Retinal manifestation occurs in patients with anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic syndromes. It is not uncommon for the ocular findings to be the first manifestation of the systemic disease. In these patients the correct diagnosis can be difficult because as a rule the retinal involvement is unspecific. In cases of unexplained retinal changes with hemorrhage and cotton wool spots, an underlying hematological disease should be suspected and the appropriate diagnostics should be recommended.
