Abstract
A 4-month-old boy presented with an apparently spontaneous uniocular hyphema as the initial manifestation of Christmas disease (hemophilia B). Although it is uncommon for patients with hemophilia to experience major bleeds in infancy, and the ocular involvement is usually limited to periocular hemorrhages, we recommend that a coagulation profile be obtained in all patients with intraocular hemorrhage to rule out this disease.Entities:
