A 53-year-old man presented with an acute headache and mental status changes due to rupture of an anterior choroidal artery aneurysm. A preoperative CT scan demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage, bilateral optic nerve sheath hemorrhage, and bilateral intraocular hemorrhage. Ophthalmoscopy and B-scan ocular ultrasound disclosed vitreous hemorrhages, features consistent with Terson syndrome. This is the first CT report of Terson syndrome showing bilateral optic nerve sheath hemorrhage.
