Sunila Jain, Salma Babiker and Tiarnan D Keenan

Purtscher retinopathy is a hemorrhagic and vasoocclusive vasculopathy and was first described as a syndrome of sudden blindness associated with severe head trauma. We present a case report of an unusual case of this condition where this is unilateral and without direct head trauma. We also discuss the current literature about this rare condition.
