Abstract

Central retinal vein occlusions (CRVO) occurring in young patients or due to a traumatic etiology is uncommon. This paper outlines the case of a 33-year-old Asian male who presented with a chief complaint of blurry peripheral vision and photophobia in his left eye, one week after sustaining blunt ocular trauma. He was diagnosed with a traumatic CRVO based on history and exam findings.
