Conclusion
In conclusion, patients with ocular complications following snakebite
should be followed up closely and carefully examined for retinal
hemorrhages and neovascularization. This case serves as a reminder of
the diverse and sometimes unexpected complications that can follow snake
bites, particularly in the ocular domain. It emphasizes the
importance of post-snake bite ophthalmic monitoring, awareness, and
timely intervention including laser photocoagulation to prevent
disastrous complications like tractional retinal detachment and
irreversible damage which can significantly impact the vision
and thus the patient’s quality of life.
