Abstract:
·Hemophilia is a rare disorder that occasionally has visual symptoms after diagnosis. The authors present a case in which visual symptoms led to the initial diagnosis, a 22-year-old man who represented with spontaneous fundal haemorrhage. There is no history of bleeding and trauma. The fundal haemorrhage was absorbed significantly without any treatment after 3 months follow-up. Hemophilia A was found to be the causative disorder in this previously healthy man. The authors present a rare case in which unilateral visual complaints led to the diagnosis of hemophilia A. Thus, though uncommon, hemophilia should be considered in the differential diagnosis of otherwise unexplained fundal haemorrhages.
