Hair dye’s aromatic amines lead to blurred vision lasting four months: case
Despite switching dyes, some abnormalities persisted for at least four years, French doctors say.
A 61-year-old woman developed bilateral blurry vision shortly after using hair dye, due to the aromatic amines in the product, French doctors say.
The patient had no relevant medical history, no exposure to corticosteroids, and used a commercially available hair dye containing para-phenylenediamine, according to the case in JAMA Ophthalmology.
