Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A healthy 6-year-old boy with a clinical picture of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) of his left eye is presented here. The underlying cause was a trauma to the boy's left cheek some 6 months earlier. Possible pathophysiological mechanisms are discussed. To the best of our knowledge, the late onset of traumatic CRAO has not yet been reported in the literature.
