Abstract

Consumption of large quantities of alcohol has a number of well-known consequences, but the effect endured by one patient is rather remote. A 27-year-old black man was brought to the emergency department after suffering head trauma that initially left him unconscious. His score on the Glasgow Coma Scale was 14, denoting a mild head injury. Physical examination on admission revealed that the patient had a monocular hematoma. Computed tomography excluded intracranial bleeding and other serious injuries.
