Chauhan et al. reported an extremely interesting patient presenting with reversible cortical blindness following electrocution in the subacute period [1]. The patient had admitted with sudden onset headache and bilateral visual blurring which had suddenly developed one week later electrocution. Concurrently performed cranial MRI had showed bilateral cortical diffusion restriction in parieto-occipital regions.
