Summary
<p>Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects 0.1% to 3% of the adult population worldwide and causes a heavy economic burden.1 It has been associated with numerous comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, kidney diseases, ocular diseases, and arthritis. .2,3 Ocular involvement due to psoriasis includes the ocular surface and anterior segment structures of the eye, and uveitis has been reported at a rate of 7-20%.4,5 In the healthy population, this rate is 38-714 per 100000.6</p><p><br></p><p> In our study, we aimed to determine the ocular findings of patients with psoriasis by routine eye examination including intraocular pressure measurement, anterior and posterior segment examination, slit lamp examination, visual acuity measurement and flaremetry examination, and optical coherence coherence tomography.</p><p>KAYNAKLAR</p><p>1.
