Optic neuritis and retrobulbar neuritis with marked visual impairment occurred in 9of 33 patients with cystic fibrosis, who received long-term therapy with chloramphenicol. Two patients had severe visual impairment and permanent residual effects with partial optic atrophy. Vitamin B complex has been demonstrated to be therapeutic in some instances. It is thought that the visual impairment probably represents a neurotoxic effect of chloramphenicol rather than a complication of cystic fibrosis. All patients with cystic fibrosis who receive long-term therapy with chloramphenicol must have frequent tests for visual acuity and periodic ophthalmologic examinations.
