Blindness of the left eye in large cerebral infarction may occur because the area of cerebral infarction includes the brain area where the visual center is located or affects the retinal blood vessels on the left side, so there will be the symptom of blindness of the left eye, which is uncommon in clinic, but it is still possible.
Large cerebral infarction when the infarcted area includes the brain area where the visual center of the left eye is located, i.e. the occipital lobe of the right side of the brain, can lead to blindness of the left eye, this situation requires early thrombolytic therapy, such as the use of recombinant tissue-type fibrinolytic plasminogen activator and other drugs.
If the time of thrombolysis is missed, aspirin and clopidogrel should also be used as early as possible for antiplatelet aggregation, mannitol dehydration to lower cranial pressure and other treatments.
When cerebral infarction occurs, if it affects the left ophthalmic artery, which in turn affects the left central retinal artery, it may also lead to blindness of the left eye of the patient, and then it should be treated for cerebral infarction in a timely manner, and the treatment method is the same as above.
If you are diagnosed with massive cerebral infarction with left eye blindness, please keep a positive attitude and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
