Roth’s spots in the retina
For the same reasons explained above, a series of hemorrhagic spots start appearing in the retina. They are called Roth’s spots, and they are similar to red petechial spots but have a white center. They are mostly found in patients with bacteremia (blood infection) as a complication of bacterial endocarditis. They may be present in other diseases and health conditions, including anemia, leukemia, and carbon monoxide poisoning.
