| Popis: | During pregnancy, ocular changes are very commonly observed. Ocular changes during pregnancy are categorized as physiological or pathological. Ocular manifestations during pregnancy could also lead to diplopia, scotomata, retrobulbar pain and visual obstruction. According to many studies we analyzed, it has been stated that an estimate of 14 percent of pregnant women reports experience visual changes during pregnancy.A systemic self-study and meta analysis was planned to analyze and study the various ocular manifestations of pregnancy. With the application of Electronic databases we searched PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Medline Plus, Health line & Cleveland Clinic web which were published in English Language. This systemic self-study have reviewed the facts which were published earlier to determine the current scenario by vast study of statistics and derivation of facts. Vast analysis and along with proper examination of data were made to evaluate with final conclusion.: Based on our systematic self study and vast analysis on ophthalmic changes occurring during pregnancy we derive to a fact that any ocular changes could be categorized as physiological ocular changes or pathological ocular changes occurring during pregnancy. Physiological changes are those changes which occur normally during pregnancy whereas pathological changes are those changes which are present for the very first time in pregnancy or it could be modification in existed disease affected by pregnancy.: We conclude that pathological manifestations are very common in pregnancy which accounts for majority of pregnant women could be managed by general practitioners and optometrists. Pathological preexisting ocular condition could be referred to ophthalmologist for further management. Pregnant women with systemic disease would require hospital care with supportive antenatal service. |
