Özet

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is one of the most serious forms of tuberculous disorders with considerable complications and mortality.1Ocular complications may result from optochiasmatic arachnoiditis, hydrocephalus, development of tuberculoma which presses on optic pathways, or anti-TB therapy.2 We herein report a case of TBM causing sudden onset and rapidly progressive visual loss despite appropriate anti-TB therapy.
