Abstract
Introduction

To report a case of premacular haemorrhage treated with Neodymium (Nd):YAG laser puncture.

Case report

A 54-year-old Caucasian female was seen in the emergency department with complaints of sudden loss of vision in her right eye (RE), detected on the previous day. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the RE was reduced to light perception, and fundoscopy evidenced a large and dense premacular haemorrhage.

An Nd:YAG laser puncture was performed that day to drain the haemorrhage into the vitreous cavity. The intravitreal haemorrhage cleared in about 1 month, and the BCVA of the RE was 20/25 after 3 months.

Keywords:
