  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 60-year-old male presented with visual field disturbance. He had been under systemic treatment with ethambutol for miliary tuberculosis, totalling 63g. His visual acuity was 0.5 in either eye. The fundus appeared to be practivally normal. Perimetry showed left homonymous hemianopia. No intracranial disorder was detected by magnetic resonance imaging. The left visual acuity deteriorated to 0.2 three weeks later, leading to the diagnosis of ethambutol neuropathy. The visual acuity improved to 0.6 one week after discontinuation of ethambutol. The visual field defect remained almost stationary for 10 months later.
