Purpose:

To report young pregnant woman presenting with acute visual loss due to Valsalva retionopathy and spontaneous visual recovery.

Methods:

A 23-year-old woman primigravida with 31 weeks of gestation presented with a history of suddenly decreased vision in her left eye from seven hours prior to visit. Based on clinical findings, lab test and imaging Studies, the diagnosis of Valsalva retinopathy was made. Her vision was returned to normal durin 3 months without intervention.

Results:

A 23-year-old woman primigravida with 31 weeks of gestation presented with a history of suddenly decreased vision in her left eye from seven hours prior to visit. Based on clinical findings, lab test and imaging Studies, the diagnosis of Valsalva retinopathy was made. Her vision was returned to normal durin 3 months without intervention.

Conclusion:

Pregnancy is known to be a risk factor for Valsalva retinopathy and There is no evidence to indicate that there is a risk of recurrence following spontaneous vaginal delivery. Lab studies can be used to rule out predisposing risk factors, including diabetes, anemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and other blood dyscrasias. The prognosis for patients with pure Valsalva retinopathy is generally good with observation alone. Vision usually returns to normal over a short period of time, from weeks to months.
