Abstract

Vascular alterations are frequent findings in the context of ocular toxoplasmosis. They usually occur within the quadrant in which the focus of retinochoroiditis is located. Most of these phenomena do not generate occlusion of the vessels, in fact these are the least frequent cases. Ischemia resulting from occlusive lesions can cause irreversible damage to the retina even though the area involved is subsequently relocated. This translates into disorders in the visual field that are added to those generated by the tissue remodeling of the inflamed retina itself, leading to very severe visual alterations.
