Abstract

Purpose: To describe the neuro-ophthalmologic complications of sinus surgery. Methods: The charts of seven patients who suffered visual loss and/or diplopia following sinus surgery were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Clinical findings included orbital hematoma, orbital foreign body, extra-ocular muscle dysfunction, optic neuropathy, and a chiasmal hematoma. Conclusions: Sinus surgery may result in significant neuro-ophthalmologic complications.
