    Abstract:
    Purtscher's syndrome (traumatic retinal angiopathy, posttraumatic retinopathy) belongs to rare posttraumatic retinopathies. The authors present a case of a bilateral occurrence of this syndrome after a head injury connected with pancreatitis. A 6-months long observation of the patient showed an improvement of the visual acuity from counting fingers to 0.1 and receding of the inflammatory-oedematous changes at the eye fundus; there remained a pallor of the temporal side of the optic discs.
