ResumenBackground: The eye is not an organ immune to insults as a result of impairments to normal function or illnesses. In those patients that are intubated and/or sedated, the protective blink reflex is often not working properly, or not working at all. This paper will review some of the conditions of the eye most often encountered in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: PubMed was searched using the keywords ophthalmological problems, ICU, ophthalmology, eye, keratitis, chemosis, candidemia, infections to locate reports of ophthalmologic problems in the intensive care unit and literature about recommendations for the management of those ophthalmologic conditions. Results: The present study is a review of the recent literature related to the diagnosis and management of ophthalmological issues in the ICU. Conclusions: The eye is an important, and often under utilized, diagnostic indicator of disease. In the ICU the eye is vulnerable to the increased potential of insult. It is necessary to prevent eye damage by trying to preserve its protective layers integrity and regularly examined in ICU patients.es_ES
