SYSTEMIC DISORDERS

Systemic disorders develop
prominently towards the latter
end of the age period of 20-40.
Since the eye is part of the body
furnished with blood vessels and
nerves and cells il shares the
fate Of all the other structures
of the body. and is affected by
systemic disorders.
High blood pressure or harden
ing of the arteries and diabetes
are the two systemic conditions
that most frequently affect the
eyes. The condition of the
arteries of the body is best OBJ
served in the appearance of the
blood vessels of the retina, and
hemorrhageS and similar condi-
tions in the retina lead to di-
minished vision and 9th er
disturbances. Diabetes may
cause cataract of opacity of the
eye as well as retinal dis
turbanceS.
Different drugs that we use
daily may have decided toxic
effects on the eye. Quinine is
one of these, but in non-malarial
regions this is a rarity. Aspirin
has somewhat similar actions.
Alcoholics one of the most in
SidiouS eye poiSons. The optic
nerve is affected with resulting
fogginess of sight that may go
on TO marked visual impairment.
The effect of alcohol is fire.
quently augmented by tobacco,
but tobacco alone can cause
toxic amblyopia or dimness of
vision from the effect of nico-
tine on the retlna. Strong cigars
and pipes are the worst Offend
ers. Both alcohol and tobacco
amblyopia run a chronic course,
but usually result in resolution
as a result Of abstinence.
