Abstract
A case is reported of a patient with known haemoglobin H disease who was found to have angioid streaks and retinal detachment. Angioid streaks have not previously been reported in cases of alpha-thalassaemia, and the question whether this is a chance association or otherwise is discussed.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
