Abstract

Illicit use of cocaine has been associated with adverse vascular events involving most organ systems. A case report of a 30-year-old female with acute, bilateral loss of vision after smoking "crack" cocaine is presented. Other adverse ocular manifestations of cocaine use, and the differential diagnosis of toxin-induced blindness are presented.
