Abstract
To describe a patient with iatrogenically induced central retinal vein occlusions secondary to serum hyperviscosity from intravenous immunoglobulin administration. Case report. The patient developed bilateral central retinal vein occlusions in association with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins. The central retinal vein occlusions resolved when the immunoglobulins were withheld and serum hyperviscosity decreased. Administration of high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins can be associated with hyperviscosity syndrome manifested by central retinal vein occlusion.
