Case report reveals irregular altitudinal visual field defect from traumatic choroidal rupture, suggesting unique clinical implications.
A patient developed a traumatic choroidal rupture of his left eye during a rodeo broncobusting ride. The unusual aspect of this horizontal rupture is that it produced an irregular altitudinal field defect. The trauma was severe enough to cause a field defect not typically seen in choroidal ruptures. This is thought to be the first such report.
