  • Title: [Central arterial occlusion after blunt force ocular injury : Case report].
    Author: Filev F, Atiskova Y, Klemm M.
    Journal: Ophthalmologe; 2017 Feb; 114(2):159-162. PubMed ID: 27260625.
    Abstract:
    A healthy young male patient suffered a nearly complete loss of vision after a minor ocular injury. We describe a rare case of central arterial occlusion after blunt force trauma. After rheological therapy the visual acuity increased from perception of hand movement to 1/20, 1 month after the injury. Central artery occlusion is a rare but severe complication after blunt force ocular trauma that should be considered when patients suffer severe posttraumatic loss of vision.
