Proptosis and vision loss as grave complications of allergic fungal sinusitis and polyposis

Allergic fungal sinusitis and polyposis are noninvasive, but aggressive, inflammatory responses to mold that occur in immunocompetent patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyposis.1 An association of these conditions with vitamin D deficiency has been reported.2 In severe cases, patients with allergic fungal sinusitis present with ophthalmic signs and symptoms, such as proptosis, diplopia, and, in extreme cases, vision loss.3 Most cases require surgical intervention, corticosteroids, and ongoing surveillance.
