Abstract
ABSTRACT Ischemic optic neuropathy is a severe condition causing perioperative visual loss that may occur after a wide range of non-ocular surgeries, including liposuction. Several cases of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) as a complication of liposuction have been published. Most have features in common such as anemia and altitudinal visual field defects. We report a case of incipient NAION in one eye and established NAION in the fellow eye after abdominoplasty, mastopexy, and large-volume liposuction, which complicated with anemia, but visual function recovered.
