Abstract: | Ocular examination should be a part of the routine assessment of the patients seen at sexually transmitted diseases (STD) clinics due to the importance of these organs in the general wellbeing of patients. It is essential to keep an open eye on ocular signs and symptoms of patients with a history of exposure to common STD pathogens, to ensure prompt investigation and management of ocular complications of the STDs, which, if left unnoticed, otherwise could subject the patients to a great deal of anxiety and distress. |
