Background:

  • Whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) are common after 교통사고.
  • Neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms can be subtle or overt following whiplash injury.
  • Understanding these visual complications is crucial for patient management.

Observation:

  • A young woman presented with visual field impairment and reduced amplitude of accommodation after a whiplash injury.
  • She experienced significant asthenopic discomforts, indicative of visual system strain.
  • The case underscores the potential for ocular and visual pathway involvement.

Findings:

  • Whiplash injury can lead to diverse neuro-ophthalmologic manifestations.
  • Commonly observed issues include impaired accommodation and convergence.
