We report a 83-year-old woman with dementia. She was apparently well until December of 1993 when she was 81-year-old. At that time, she was operated on her cataract. Her post-operative course was uneventful, however, shortly after her opera-tion, she had an onset of memory loss and abnormal behavior. She showed a fluctuating course in her mental disturbance. In 1995, her dementia worsened with nocturnal agitation. She was admitted to our service on June 12, 1995. She was alert and her blood pressure was 140/100 mmHg. She showed recent memory loss and disorientation to time.
