BSTRACT A case of Terson’s syndrome in 50-year-old Thai male was reported. The patient had a sudden blurred vision with severe headache for one month. The eye examination revealed dense vitreous hemorrhages in both eyes. The patient had no neurological deficit. The investigation showed left choroidal artery aneurysm demonstrated by the cerebral angiogram. It was supposed that this aneurysm caused spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage and vitreous hemorrhage. Blood in the vitreous was removed by vitrectomy and the visual acuity improved.
