Acetazolamide-Induced Thrombocytopenia

چکیده
Not only did diffuse loss mean deviation appear, but abnormal areas appeared with high intraocular pressure in the present patient. If corneal edema affected visual field, only diffuse loss would occur. Refractive error was corrected at examination of FDT. Good visual acuity was maintained under high intraocular pressure. In conclusion, FDT perimetry may show intraocular pressure–dependent, reversible changes.

ACETAZOLAMIDE is known to produce many minor side-effects when given for any length of time. Becker and Middleton (1955) have described the following in seventy patients receiving long-term acetazolamide for glaucoma: paresthesiae 61 per cent., gastrointestinal disturbances 49 per cent., excessive fatigue 16 per cent., urinary disturbances 4 per cent., hearing loss 3 per cent., leucopenia 3 per...

متن کاملAcetazolamide, alternate carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and hypoglycaemic agents: comparing enzymatic with diuresis induced metabolic acidosis following intraocular surgery in diabetes
We describe a case of acetazolamide induced acidosis associated with the precipitation of a hyperosmolar state in a diabetic patient 6 weeks after routine phacoemulsification. While renal tubular acidosis is well reported with acetazolamide, this case suggests that a direct diuresis induced acidosis can also have significant effects, producing serious complications when acetazolamide is prescri...
