Case study
Mr. S a 65 year old man was in an automobile accident in which he suffered a concussion.  Soon after he was released, ge noticed what he described as a gray spot in his field of vision.  At first he ignored it thinking it would go away but the spot seemed to darken and spread over his visual field. He didn't report anypain with the problem. On calling his physician,  he was advised to gonyo the nearest hospital immediately.  A detached retina was diagnosed. After treatment he regained most of his normal sight back. Five years later  he began having problems again.  The central area of his visual field was becoming blurred,  and he was losing his depth perception.  An initial eye examination revealed neovascularization in both eyes.Â
