Abstract: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is clonal disorder characterised by reciprocal translocation t (9, 22). About half of the patients are asymptomatic. Unilateral vision disturbance is very rare symptom of CML and we present the second case report. A 34-year-old, previously healthy, man presented with complaints of blurring in right eye. The visual acuity was 0.5 in the right eye, with normal vision on the left. Intraretinal hemorrhage in the right eye was confirmed by fundoscopy and optical coherence tomography.
