| Abstrakt: | Cobalt intoxication is a rare cause of toxic opticopathy, and may be caused by metal endoprostheses. Since its clinical appearance is unspecific and the incidence low, diagnosis is challenging. Due to the dramatic consequences of delayed treatment, cobalt intoxication should be considered as a rare differential diagnosis of bilateral loss of vision in patients with appropriate history.
