  • Title: Spontaneous microscopic hyphema secondary to iris vascular tufts: Case report with video documentation.
    Author: Blanco NA, Tello A, Galvis V, Acuña MF, Pedraza-Concha A.
    Journal: Indian J Ophthalmol; 2019 Dec; 67(12):2080-2082. PubMed ID: 31755467.
    Abstract:
    A 71-year-old woman presented with spontaneous microhyphema in her left eye, causing blurry vision. Bleeding stopped spontaneously shortly after several cycles of digital compression on the upper eyelid, (which were documented in video), and therefore, did not require laser photocoagulation, a possible approach previously explained to the patient. A microhemangioma at the edge of the iris was identified to be the cause of the condition. The hemorrhage did not recur during the follow-up period (9 months).
