Histopathology & Cytopathology

Choroidal Histopathology

The choroid provides the main blood supply to the eye and plays a key role in eye physiology. Different entities can compromise its structure and function, having a striking impact on vision. Knowing the histology of the normal eye is fundamental for the correct understanding of the pathologic processes. This chapter is therefore organized into pathological subcategories defined as congenital, inflammatory, and neoplastic processes. The correlation between these different entities and the histopathology would allow us to have the right interpretation of the interaction between the eye, the patient, and the disease, opening the field to different treatments and improving quality among health providers
