Abstract

A 59 year old diabetic and hypertensive lady with primary open angle glaucoma and past history of non ischemic central retinal vein occlusion presented with vitreous hemorrhage(VH). The VH did not resolve over a 2 month period and led to a sudden rise in intraocular pressure(IOP). Anterior chamber had 2+ khaki colored cells. Gonioscopic examination revealed open angles and no evidence of neovascularization. The IOP was controlled with medical management and vitrectomy was performed for non-resolving VH, which revealed a ruptured retinal artery macroaneurysm (RAM). Our case report contributes to the understanding of the diverse clinical spectrum of RAM.
