abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe subinternal limiting membrane hemorrhage as a retinal complication of chemotherapy nadir in a patient with leukemia.
  
  
  METHODS

  RESULTS
  A 23-year-old man presented with bilateral subinternal limiting membrane hemorrhages in both eyes as a manifestation of thrombocytopenia secondary to chemotherapy treatment for acute myeloid leukemia.
