Abstract
Retinal hypoxia caused by anemia can be a cause of retinal nerve fiber infarction and increased transmural pressure. This results in superficial and deep hemorrhages, cotton wool spots, retinal edema, Roth spots, and vessel dilatations. Tuberculosis (TB) may cause anemia due to malabsorption, reduced intake, or due to chronic diseased state. Here, we report a patient of abdominal TB with anemic retinopathy, which was improved after taking proper treatment for anemia.
