Abstract:

Pregnancy-induced hypertension retinopathy is an ocular complication of  pregnancy-induced hypertension. The etiology and pathogenesis of the disease remains unclear. With the in-depth study of the retinopathy, researchers gradually find that choroidopathy plays an important role in the pathogenesis. In this review, we analyzed the pregnancy-induced hypertension  retinopathy, and provided characteristics of its epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, diagnosis，treatment and prognosis.   (Int Rev Ophthalmol,  2016,  40:     94-97)
