[Retinal vascular complications in systemic lupus erythematosus].
An analysis of three women with retinal vaso-occlusive disease in systemic lupus erythematosus produced evidence for this most severe ophthalmic complication during the acute phase of the syndrome. Vaso-occlusive retinopathy appeared 5 years after the onset of systemic symptomatology in all of them. Association of central nervous system lupus and circulating anti-coagulants with increased occurrence of severe retinal vaso-occlusive disease are the subject of the present report. Unilateral extensive photocoagulation of two cases appeared to result in successful therapy of neovascular glaucoma after the central retinal artery occlusion in one patient. Lupus erythematosus is very serious systemic and ocular disease also in present time.
