  • Title: Preretinal and retinal hemorrhage due to chronic subdural hematoma.
    Author: Suzuki N, Takeda M, Takeda M, Hotta H.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1985 Aug; 17(8):494-7. PubMed ID: 3876800.
    Abstract:
    A case report of a 58-year-old man with preretinal and retinal hemorrhages due to chronic subdural hematoma is presented. Three weeks after head injury in a motor vehicle accident, a few peripapillary retinal hemorrhages with slightly blurred margins of the optic disk were seen in both eyes; subretinal and preretinal hemorrhages developed subsequently. Computed tomography revealed right frontal subdural hematoma, though there were no neurologic findings. Preretinal hemorrhages associated with subdural hematoma are uncommon in adults, and no photographic evidence of such hemorrhages has been published. The patient was treated nonsurgically, and the ocular hemorrhages resolved gradually.
