This study presents a case of Terson syndrome following trauma, where vitrectomy significantly improved vision. Pars plana vitrectomy is effective for treating traumatic vitreous hemorrhage and restoring sight.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Trauma Care

Background:

  • Terson syndrome involves vitreous hemorrhage associated with intracranial hemorrhage.
  • Traumatic brain injuries can lead to ocular complications, including vitreous hemorrhage.
  • Prompt management is crucial for visual recovery in ocular trauma.

Observation:

  • A 50-year-old male patient sustained multiple injuries, including cranial fractures and bilateral vitreous hemorrhages, after a traffic accident.
  • Initial visual acuity was severely impaired in both eyes (Right: 1/500, Left: 1/200).
  • The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy with a Tollentino lens in the right eye.

Findings:

  • Post-vitrectomy, the patient experienced significant visual improvement.
  • Visual acuity in the right eye recovered to 16/20 within 21 days.

  • The surgical intervention demonstrated positive outcomes in managing traumatic vitreous hemorrhage.

    • Implications:

    • Pars plana vitrectomy is a viable and effective treatment for vitreous hemorrhage in Terson syndrome.
    • This case highlights the importance of ophthalmological evaluation and intervention in patients with head trauma and visual disturbances.
    • Successful surgical management can lead to substantial visual recovery, improving patient prognosis.
