Abstract
A 43-year-old woman complained of blurred vision OS and headache. Reti nal hemorrhages, retinal capillary nonperfusion, and rubeotic glaucoma were noted OS. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia was also found. We believ e that rubeotic glaucoma associated with acute leukemia, as demonstrat ed in our patient, may be rare.
