  • Title: Retinal telangiectasia secondary to bilateral carotid artery occlusion.
    Author: Campo RV, Reeser FH.
    Journal: Arch Ophthalmol; 1983 Aug; 101(8):1211-3. PubMed ID: 6349594.
    Abstract:
    A man complaining of blurred vision had diffuse retinal capillary telangiectasia as a primary retinal finding. Evaluation of the carotid arteries by a noninvasive angiographic method revealed bilateral, silent occlusions of both common carotid arteries. Thus, some cases of "idiopathic retinal capillary telangiectasia" may in fact be harbingers of underlying carotid artery disease.
