8 patients with disc, retinal, vitreous hemorrhages and abducens paralysis which developed after subarachnoid hemorrhages. Intravitreous hemorrhages were observed in 4 of those patients.
Results:
Vitreous hemorrhages cleared spontaneously in two patients. In the remaining two ones with no tendency for blood resorption intravitreous injections of anti-Rh serum were performed. Vitreous hemorrhage cleared in all the patients after 5-6 weeks and visual acuity improved to 0.8.
