[Binocular inferior altitudinal hemianopia following occult hemorrhage (author's transl)].
Authors report a case of binocular inferior altitudinal hemianopia caused by occult haemorrhage from the gastrointestinal tract. There was a 36 hours' period between the onset of visual field defects of the two eyes. The ocular signs have thrown light on the grave anaemic condition. The internal state of the patient was rapidly improving but the visual field defects have remained the same.
