ABSTRACT
Retrobulbar hematoma is one of the major complications following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). Symptoms and physical findings include temporary blindness, ophthalmoplegia, mydriasis, ptosis, proptosis and eyelid ecchymosis. Recently, we experienced a rare case of the left Horner's syndrome with compressive optic neuropathy resulting from bilateral delayed retrobulbar hematoma after ESS. There is no literature about the Horner's syndrome as a complication of ESS at present. We hereby present this case with an emphasis on the importance of prevention, identification and management of retrobulbar hematoma.
