Résumé

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.
