Clinical Phases
Central nervous system depression Onset of 30 min 2 hr; intoxication may be of shorter
duration and less pronounced than that arising from ethanol ingestion
Asymptomatic latent period (following central depression) This period of varying duration; may
last 8 24 hr following ingestion, but occasionally up to 48 hr. Patients describe no overt
symptoms or have signs during this period.
Severe metabolic acidosis (occur after latent phase) Nausea, vomiting and headache may
also occur and may be superimposed on the visual toxicity described below.

73

Ocular toxicity (followed by blindness, coma and in extreme case, death) Visual disturbances
generally develop 12 48 hr after ingestion and range from mild photophobia and misty or
blurred vision to markedly reduced visual acuity and complete blindness. Visual impairment
usually takes the form of central scotoma or complete blindness secondary to optic atrophy.
