Bilateral serous retinal detachment in preeclampsia--a case report.

Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and fetal/neonatal mortality worldwide. Serous retinal detachment is an unusual cause of visual loss in pregnancy. This is a case report of a 17-year-old patient who was admitted to the obstetric ward with symptoms of preeclampsia. The pregnancy was terminated by cesarean section at 38 gestational weeks. The patient complained of blurred vision in both eyes throughout the perinatal period. The ophthalmic examination revealed serous retinal detachment in both eyes. The optical coherence tomography demonstrated the hyporeflective area between the retinal pigment epithelium and the neurosensory retina. With blood pressure control at postpartum, there serous retinal detachment resolved spontaneously and patient's vision improved.
