Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are clinical syndromes caused by the instability or rupture of coronary atheromatous plaques. The development and treatment of ACS are closely related to some ocular manifestations. Hypertensive retinopathy, retinal arteriovenous occlusion, diabetes retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration are associated with a high risk of ACS. Retinal vascular occlusion may be a potential postoperative complication of the percutaneous coronary intervention for ACS. Ocular parameters such as the retinal vascular diameter and density, the blood flow velocity of the ophthalmic artery, and the choroidal thickness are expected to be markers for assessing or predicting the risk of ACS, which are of important value for the prevention of cardiovascular events such as ACS.
