Intraocular hemorrhage in sudden increased intracranial pressure (Terson syndrome).
We examined 19 cases with SAH, 4 of which presented intraocular hemorrhages (retinal, subhyaloid and in vitreous). The mortality rate was 50% when the intraocular hemorrhages were present compared to 20% when they were absent.
