- Abstract
VR is a rare condition that causes a sudden vision loss. Although VR is considered to be rare but a serious complication of surgery. Our case was a 64 years old woman was presented with preretinal haemorrhage including macular area in right eye secondary to VR after an uneventful cataract surgery under general anesthesia. Her vision was counting fingers after the surgery. Although surgical correction or Nd:YAG laser hyaloidotomy was available she was treated with single intravitreal TPA, intravitreal bevacizumab and 0.2cc SF6 gase injection. There was significant reduction of premacular haemorrhage and her vision improved to 7/10 after injection on the final visit.
