| Description |
Primary HES is a rare idiopathic leukoproliferative disorder marked by an eosinophilia of greater than 1500 eosinophils/mm3 for more than 6 months with target organ damage. Stroke incidence in HES is estimated around 12%, and ophthalmologic manifestations are reported in 18% of cases. We will present a case of cortical blindness due to rapidly deteriorating HES. |
