Blindness following elective cosmetic surgery can be a devastating complication, for the patient as well as the surgeon. A case of unilateral blindness secondary to central retinal artery occlusion following an open septorhinoplasty is presented. Possible causes of blindness following rhinoplasty and steps to prevent this complication are addressed.Entities:
