- Abstract
Eales' disease is common in India and the Middle East, but its neurologic manifestations are rare. The authors report a young man with recurrent vitreous hemorrhage and acute amnestic confusional state who subsequently developed myelopathy. Eales' disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis of stroke in a young patient.
