Abstract

A case of acute orbital haemorrhage induced by labour is reported in a woman giving birth for the eighth time. The diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography. The haemorrhage subsided spontaneously within three weeks. The mechanism of orbital haemorrhage following certain kinds of strain is discussed.
