  • Title: Retrobulbar haemorrhage associated with chronic Gingko biloba ingestion.
    Author: Fong KC, Kinnear PE.
    Journal: Postgrad Med J; 2003 Sep; 79(935):531-2. PubMed ID: 13679551.
    Abstract:
    Retrobulbar haemorrhage is a rare and potentially sight threatening complication after peribulbar local anaesthetic injection for cataract surgery. A case is reported of a woman who developed this complication and was subsequently found to have been taking Gingko biloba extract tablets which may have predisposed her to developing the haemorrhage.
