When Preeclampsia Affects the Retina: Bilateral Serous Detachment, An Unusual Presentation

Preeclampsia is a serious complication of pregnancy that can affect multiple organs, including the eyes. Although preeclampsia is typically associated with retinal artery narrowing, more severe complications such as cortical blindness, optic neuropathy, and serous retinal detachment (SRD) can occur in rare cases. We report a case of bilateral serous retinal detachment in a patient with severe preeclampsia, with a favorable outcome after appropriate management. SRD in preeclampsia is a rare complication that can occur even in the immediate postpartum period, with a generally favorable prognosis. This case highlights the importance of ophthalmologic monitoring in patients with preeclampsia.
