Purtscher-like retinopathy: Case report of a rare complication of acute on chronic pancreatitis.

Purtscher's retinopathy is an occlusive micro-vasculopathy causing sudden onset visual loss in trauma. Similar retinal appearance is observed as a rare complication of acute pancreatitis which is identified as Purtscher-like retinopathy (PulR). We report the case of a 15-year-old girl diagnosed to have acute on chronic pancreatitis who noticed a sudden onset loss of vision in the left eye and was found to have significantly diminished visual acuity.
