A member asked:
Could dilated cardiomyopathy affect your eyes at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: The best answer would depend on the cause of your cardiomyopathy. There is a group of rare diseases that are due to mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondrial diseases can affect the eyes and mitochondrial diseases can cause cardiomyopathy. So, if you have mitochondrial disease, you could have both eye disease and cardiomyopathy.
