Ocular findings in patient with primary familial pulmonary hypertension.

Exudative retinal detachment as subretinal fluid accumulation occurs due to chorioretinal eye disease (inflammation, infection, tumor, vascular abnormalities) and in systemic diseases too. The aim of this case report was to emphasize connection between the ophthalmological pathology and other systemic conditions. This is a case report of a 45-year old woman who suffered from pulmonary hypertension caused by many recurrent thromboembolic events. During one of eight previous hospitalizations she complained of blurred vision. Bilateral exudative detachment is diagnosed by an ophthalmologist. Parenteral steroids and acetazolamide provided quick recovery.
