Abstract

We report a case of unilateral valsalva retinopathy caused by severe coughing who presented to us with the complaints of sudden, painless loss of vision in the right eye (RE) for 1 week. Her presenting visual acuity for distance was 20/200 for RE. Fundus examination of RE revealed pre-retinal haemorrhage (PRH). Left eye (LE) fundus examination was normal. A diagnosis of valsalva retinopathy in RE was made and the patient was subjected to 25 gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with complete visual recovery.
