Abstract
We present a case of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage accompanied by a dense vitreous hemorrhage and subsequent retinal detachment with strong proliferative retinopathy (PVR) in a young woman. The surgical treatment included vitrectomy with PVR removal, ILM peeling and silicone oil as a tamponade. In our case, the treatment resulted in recovery of vision and improved activities of daily living, although unusually vitreous hemorrhage was complicated with retinal detachment and strong PVR.
