Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: Both treating nephrologist and ophthalmologist should be aware of this uncommon but potentially blinding complication, to permit its early recognition and prevent the occurrence in the fellow eye. Also, care should be taken to prevent and treat any hypotensive episodes during and following dialysis therapy in such high-risk patients.
