ABSTRACT

Dengue fever is a common mosquito-borne viral disease in the tropics with known multisystemic complications. Dengue related ocular manifestation is relatively unusual and may present with wide spectrum of ocular manifestations. We report three cases of uncommon dengue related ocular complications with different ocular manifestations, its management and sequelae. Early recognition and close monitoring of ocular sequelae from dengue infection is warranted to prevent irreversible visual damage

Keywords: Dengue fever, macular oedema, sixth nerve palsy, tonic pupil.
