Abstract
Valsalva hemorrhagic retinopathy is a rare condition, often responsible for a sharp drop in visual acuity associated with pre-macular retinal hemorrhage. Pregnancy is considered a risk factor. We report a case of Valsalva retinopathy and pregnancy; through a review of the literature we describe the pathophysiological mechanism of this condition as well as the therapeutic management modalities.
