Panophthalmitis in Patient With Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever

Abstract

Abstract Dengue fever can lead to serious complications of severe bleeding, massive capillary leakage causing dengue shock syndrome and vital organ involvement. Ocular manifestations in dengue fever are rare but may sometimes lead to permanent disability. Here we report a case of rare complication of dengue fever in a 35-year-old man presenting with panophthalmitis, leading to rapidly progressive and painful visual loss. With this case, it can be emphasized that early identification and management of dengue complication may prevent vision loss.
