case_images: On admission, an ophthalmologic examination revealed significant dilation of the conjunctival vessels, chemosis, and exophthalmos of the left eye, as well as a significant loss in visual acuity (Figures 1A & 1B). Both fundi were normal (Figure 1C). The fundoscopy images of both eyes (Figures 1A & 1B) are shown respectively. Without medication, IOP in his right eye was 16 mm Hg OD and 18 mm Hg OS in his left eye, and his visual acuity was 0.8 OS after 2 months (Figures 1A & 1B).
