Acute dacryocystitis causing visual loss due to development of orbital complications like central retinal artery or ophthalmic artery occlusion, retinal vein occlusions, and optic neuritis is rare but a known entity. However, development of scleral abscess and panophthalmitis as a complication of acute dacryocystitis, leading to loss of vision, has not been described earlier. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report describing this mode of visual loss in acute dacryocystitis.
急性泪囊炎可引起眼部并发症，导致视力丧失，如视网膜中央动脉或眼动脉阻塞、视网膜静脉阻塞和视神经炎，这种情况虽然罕见，但已被认识。然而，急性泪囊炎并发巩膜脓肿和全眼球炎导致视力丧失的并发症以前尚未有报道。据作者所知，这是首例描述急性泪囊炎这种视力丧失模式的报告。
