Postpartum blindness: two cases.

We present 2 cases, one eclamptic patient and one noneclamptic patient, of headache, cortical blindness, and seizures. Both patients demonstrated findings consistent with posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome. Posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome is a rapidly evolving neurologic condition that is characterized by headache, nausea and vomiting, seizures, visual disturbances, altered sensorium, and occasionally focal neurologic deficits.
