[Haemoglobinanomalies in ophthalmological practice (author's transl)].
Several patients with different haemoglobinopathies are discussed that show various ocular changes as a result of these diseases. The ophthalmological findings range from a Sludge-phaenomenon in the conjunctiva to capillary thrombosis in the ciliary body with accommodoplegia and peripheral uveitis to arterial obliteration, arterio-venous anastomoses, neovascularisation of the retina as well as secondary retinal detachment. Possibilities of treatment of these changes and problems of prophylaxis are discussed.
