Unilateral Blindness in Post Septoplasty Due to Homocysteinemia: A Rare Presentation.

Septoplasty is a common operative procedure in ENT for correction of nasal septal deformity. Rarely it may result into devastating complication like vision loss. This may be related to other causes apart from septoplasty. The author presents a 27 yrs old male admitted to our hospital for septoplasty, 1 h after septoplasty the patient suffered from unilateral vision loss. After thorough examination and investigation the vision loss was found to be due to homocysteinemia. Hence homocysteinemia is one of the rare cause of vision loss in post septoplasty. Thus this is a rare presentation.
