Patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome have higher risk of cardiovascular comorbidities, which include: atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, systemic vascular disturbances like erectile dysfunction or abdominal aortic aneurysms. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome also affects ophthalmic arteries by decreasing blood flow velocities and increasing vascular resistance. Moreover, it is a risk factor for central retinal vein occlusion. Individuals affected by, also show higher incidence of cerebral vascular abnormalities, senile dementia, cerebral atrophy, Alzheimer’s type dementia, pulmonary diseases, sensory-neural hearing loss.
