Spontaneous retinal haemorrhages.
Five patients are described with spontaneous retinal haemorrhages. In two patients small retinal hemorrhages occurred at the posterior pole, in one of them after physical exertion. In three patients multiple small round haemorrhages occurred in the retina, in one of them after physical exertion, in two of them associated with large preretinal subhyaloidal haemorrhages. The haemorrhages developed at relatively young age and only in one eye, and cleared rapidly with good visual outcome. Physical exertion as pathogenic factor was only observed in two patients.
