| description | Pregnancy causes significant changes in all systems of the body. Although most of them are physiological, they may also lead to
pathological consequences. The resulting pathological changes may occur for the first time or existing diseases affected by pregnancy can
become more serious or change course. Diseases specific only to pregnancy may arise. Like all systems of the body, the visual system is
also affected by pregnancy, developing a wide range of physiological and pathological changes. Knowing the ocular physiological changes
and diagnosing eye diseases that may develop during pregnancy, and preventing and treating these diseases is crucial to ensure the baby’s
healthy development. Therefore, we have reviewed the conditions that an ophthalmologist should recognize, follow-up, and pay attention
to during treatment and summarized them under the topic “pregnancy and the eye”. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2015; 45: 213-219) |
