Herpes zoster ophthalmicus associated with delayed retinal thrombophlebitis
Abstract
A 58-year-old woman developed typical herpes zoster ophthalmicus associated with delayed retinal thrombophlebitis and subsequent vitreous hemorrhage. Fluorescein angiography confirmed a diagnosis of thrombophlebitis and demonstrated sparing of the arteriolar circulation. The retinopathy cleared spontaneously and visual acuity returned to 6/6 (20/20).
