[Eye changes following bone marrow transplantation].
Blood diseases such as acute leukemia can now be cured by bone marrow transplants. Complications such as a chronic host-versus-graft reaction lead to typical conjunctival changes, as described for Sjögren's syndrome and ocular pemphigoid. A patient with typical eye complications is described and the probable immunological course discussed.
