Abstract
An 18-year-old female presented with sudden onset bilateral vision loss. Extensive retinal hemorrhages were seen in both eyes. Systemic examination lead to a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia. The patient was treated with all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and other medications in the induction phase. Bilateral disc edema was noted during the second consolidation cycle with ATRA. Complete resolution of bilateral disc edema was attained in three weeks' time after discontinuing ATRA.
