Abstract
Complete and permanent amaurosis following blood loss is exceptional and occurs in elderly persons with previous circulatory disturbances. We present a case of unilateral amaurosis in an 18-year-old boy following gastric hemorrhage. To the best of our knowledge this is the first documented case of permanent amaurosis following blood loss in a young person.Keywords
