Teaching language

Suitable for English-speaking students

Objectives

1. Identify the semiology of the ocular fundus pathology

2. Observe the ocular fundus and distinguish the ocular involvement in the different pathological situations

3. To learn when to refer according to the severity of to the pathology identified on fundoscopy

Learning outcomes and competences

The objective of this curricular unit is to transmitthe necessary knowledge to identify the semiology 
of the systemic pathology affecting the posterior 
segment of the eye. In addition, funduscopy 
technical training will be given to help distinguish funduscopic manifestations of different pathologies. This knowledge will allow suspicion of ocular 
involvement in systemic diseases and to stablish its level of severity creating patient referenciation 
criteria.
