Purpose: To present the association between posterior reversible encephalopathy (PRES) syndrome due to preeclampsia and bilateral serous retinal detachment (SRD) accompanied by intraretinal fluid configuration. Methods: A 24-year-old woman, at 28 weeks of gestation presented with blurred vision bilaterally related to bilateral SRD involving the center of the macula accompanied by intraretinal fluid. The patient was diagnosed as pre-eclampsia accompanied by PRES syndrome. The patient approved and underwent delivery the same day. On day 9, ophthalmologic examination revealed complete resolution of SRD and normal visual acuity bilaterally and cranial MRI showed complete resolution of the vasogenic edema with medical treatment. Conclusion: SRD and accompanying retinal edema must be considered among etiological factors leading to sudden vision loss in patients with preeclampsia and PRES syndrome. Abbreviations: PRES = Posterior reversible encephalopathy, SRD = Serous retinal detachment, SD-OCT = Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, RPE = Retinal pigment epithelium, CSC = Central serous chorioretinopathy, ONL = Outer nuclear layer, INL = Inner nuclear layer, IPL = Inner plexiform layer, RNFL = retinal nerve fiber layer.
