We present a case of unilateral blindness with subarachnoid hemorrhage after rupture of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm. Her corrected visual acuity was 1.2 in the right eye and no light perception in the left eye. Fundus examination revealed intrarerinal and subretinal hemorrhages and optic disc atrophy in the left eye. We speculated the condition as an ischemic optic neuropathy. Although the retinal hemorrhages were gradually reduced, her left visual acuity was still no light perception. We should be aware of the potential for subarachnoid hemorrhage resulting in optic nerve damage and retinal hemorrhage.
