چکیده انگلیسی
Optic neuropathy has been reported as a side effect of long-term use of linezolid. This is particularly seen in cases of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) where treatment with linezolid may continue for about 24-30 months. We, hereby, report two cases of XDR-TB treated patients with a regimen containing linezolid who developed progressive painless loss of vision during the course of treatment. In both the cases, the visual symptoms resolved completely on withdrawing linezolid. Early recognition of this rare side effect and timely withdrawal may salvage the eyesight of such patients.
