AB  - PURPOSE: To describe retinal findings and spectral-domain optical coherence 
      tomographic (SD-OCT) features of a patient with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever 
      (CCHF) presenting as Purtscher-like retinopathy. CASE REPORT: A 70-year-old woman 
      presented with the emerging bilateral blurring of vision. She had been diagnosed 
      with CCHF one week ago and hospitalized in another hospital for treatment of 
      disease. Fundoscopy of the patient revealed cotton-wool spots, retinal whitening 
      areas, and few retinal hemorrhages in a Purtscher-like configuration in both 
      eyes. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography revealed inner retinal 
      hyperreflectivity corresponding to the cotton-wool spots in both eyes, and also 
      showed subretinal fluid in the left eye. Without any treatment retinal lesions 
      and inner retinal hyperreflectivity on SD-OCT regressed within one month. 
      CONCLUSION: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is known to cause mild ocular 
      disease, and may also cause Purtscher-like retinopathy. It is important to aware 
      of the ocular findings of CCHF.
