Abstract. Purpose:To report a case of Leber optic neuropathy that improved after peroral lutein supplement. Case:A 26-year-old female had noted bilateral blurring of vision at the age of 19 years. Detection of 14484 mutation led to the diagnosis of Leber optic neuropathy. Clinical Course:Her corrected visual acuity decreased to 0.02 in either eye one year after diagnosis. Since 20 months before, she started self-medication of peroral supplement that contains high dosis of lutein. She noted improved visual functions after 2 months of medication. Her corrected visual acuity improved to 0.03 right and 0.4 left. Islands of improved sensitivity appeared within the central scotoma by program 10-2 of Humphrey perimetry. Conclusion:Anti-oxidative material in lutein supplement may improve visual function in Leber optic neuropathy.
