A Case of Binocular Vertical Diplopia after Intratympanic Gentamicin Therapy
Intratympanic gentamicin therapy is a useful alternative treatment for refractory Meniere's disease and is generally well tolerated. Visual
disturbances as side effects of this treatment are rarely reported in the literature. In this report we describe the case of a 52-year-old woman
