Terson's syndrome: report of case with favorable outcome

RESUMO

Terson's syndrome is characterized by presence of a subarachnoid hemorrhage accompanied by retinal and vireous hemorrhage leading to a not very favorable prognosis. We describe a case with a good outcome, probably because of a early diagnosis and medical intervention. We emphasize the routine optician's check up as very important in the evaluation of a prognosis in the cases of a suspect intracranial hemorrhage.
