Warning Signs Of Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis

Double Vision Or Vision Loss

Vision issues may develop with cavernous sinus thrombosis. Pressure against any of the nerves that lead to the eye can affect the ability of the eyes to function properly. Additionally, corneal reflexes may be reduced, preventing the eyes from focusing effectively. This will result in blurred vision. When the sinus cavity is blocked so venous blood cannot drain from the eyes, the retina may become congestion, preventing light from entering into the eye, resulting in blindness. Double vision or vision loss typically comes on fairly quickly as the built-up pressure has a nearly instantaneous effect.
