POSTERIOR REVERSBLE ENCEPHALOPATHY SYNDROME IN ECLAMPSIA: A RARE PHENOMENON

Abstract

preeclampsia can affect multiple organ systems due to hypertension and systemic endothelial dysfunction, one of the more delicate maternal systems impacted is the brain It is not always the acute risk of preeclampsia and eclampsia on the brain that impacts maternal outcome. Cortical blindness is generally reversible, and permanent blindness from retinal vascular changes is rare [8].Other than effective treatment of preeclampsia/eclampsia and termination of pregnancy, no specic therapy is indicated in pre- eclamptic women who experience ocular changes. A Similar case with Eclampsia and blindness is presented here.
