To report a case of macular infarction after doublet chemotherapy with gemcitabine and carboplatin.
A middle-aged lady presenting with bilateral macular infarction post-chemotherapy for metastatic cervical malignancy was investigated for thromboembolic risks and treated.
The macular perfusion and edema improved with control of hypertension and treatment with pentoxifylline. Visual improvement was satisfactory, and the possible associated risk such as hypertension was noted.
This case underscores the need for active screening of patients on chemotherapy with gemcitabine and carboplatin for retinal vascular occlusive changes when hypertension is associated.
