Abstract

A 12-week-old battered infant boy had bilateral retinal detachments. The retina in the left eye was considered inoperable, but retinal detachment surgery was performed in the right eye. This retina was reattached and limited vision was restored. The history, the location of the retinal pathology, and the absence of a lens coloboma helped differentiate this result of physical abuse from a congenital retinal detachment.
