The eye and the brain are hemodynamically linked by the carotid artery and the autonomic nervous system. A number of case reports are presented that show hemodynamic increase or decrease in the eye secondary to independently proven pathological changes in the carotid, the brain, sympathetic nervous system, and the heart.
