Abstract
Perfume allergy or perfume intolerance is a rare condition wherein people exhibit sensitivity or allergic reaction to ingredients in some perfumes and other fragrances. A 36-year-old female with fragrance allergy complaining of diplopia and flashes of light sensation was referred to Basir Eye Center for possible visual pathway disturbances. Hence we report the patient's visual evoked potential and magnetic resonance imaging.
