Hemoglobin S/O<sub>Arab</sub> (Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>) disease is a rare
hemoglobinopathy
which presents similarly to sickle cell retinopathy, with only three prior reports that describe associated retinal findings. In this report, we present ophthalmic examination findings in 2 patients with Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>. One patient exhibited peripheral ischemia and sunburst lesions without neovascular disease, and the other patient developed proliferative retinopathy of both eyes and multiple posterior-pole branch retinal artery occlusions in one eye. To our knowledge, this is the first case of retinal arterial occlusive disease in Hgb S/O<sub>Arab</sub>, and the first report of fundus autofluorescence and
OCT
angiography in Hgb/O<sub>Arab</sub> retinopathy.
