Abstract:
A male patient, 59 years of age, presented with sudden deterioration of visual acuity (VA) caused by a Henle fibre layer haemorrhage (HFLH) in our outpatient department. He reported being under treatment with acetylsalicylic acid and experienced a Valsalva manoeuvre before he observed reduced vision. Due to the impairment caused by the haemorrhage, disturbing the patient's daily activities, intravitreal injection of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator combined with SF6 and bevacizumab was offered. After this procedure, the HFLH disappeared, VA improved from 20/40 to 20/20 (Snellen) 3 months after treatment and a typical hyperreflective vertical line was seen in optical coherence tomography.
