THE DAMAGE OF THE OPTIC NERVE AS THE OUTCOME OF UNINTENTIONAL POISONING BY CLOSANTEL

Background: In recent decades, the problem of toxic damage of the visual system due to poisoning by various medicines has become particularly relevant. The clinical case of a bilateral acute optic neuropathy of toxic genesis in a patient by the unintentional application of closantel used in veterina...
