This review summarizes key findings relating to the association between preeclampsia and retinal disorders.Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal morbidity. Pregnant women with preeclampsia frequently describe having visual disturbances. Retinal changes can be identified on fundoscopy in most patients with preeclampsia. While retinal pathology secondary to preeclampsia usually resolves postpartum, there is growing evidence that women with preeclampsia have a higher long-term risk of developing retinal disorders after pregnancy. Pregnant women often experience visual changes. While these symptoms may be benign, careful attention should be paid to exclude retinal disorders secondary to preeclampsia. Pregnant women complaining of new-onset or worsening blurry vision, scotomata, diplopia, or photopsia require rapid and thorough evaluation to rule out hypertensive disorders. Management of preeclampsia, including administration of magnesium sulfate and delivery of the fetus, can reverse retinal pathologies in most cases.
