Abstract
A 74-year-old man developed complete loss of vision after transurethral prostatectomy under spinal anaesthesia. Eyesight returned to normal over the next 12 hours. A direct inhibitory effect on the retina caused by glycine absorbed with the irrigation fluid is suggested as a possible cause.Entities:
