title: [Ophthalmologic complications in chronic inflammatory intestinal diseases].
abstract: Through investigations which we performed ophthalmological complications in chronic inflammatory intestinal disease are revealed. It could be demonstrated that in most cases ocular symptoms are associated with joint troubles which in their turn depend on the severity of the general disease. Especially in elderly patients with longstanding history it is important to co-operate with representatives of other medical branches in the control of ocular complaints, since there may quickly occur functional deterioration when the eye is also involved.
