A 16-year-old male presented with sudden-onset loss of vision in the left eye (LE) 2 weeks following a road traffic accident. Clinical and radiological investigations lead to a diagnosis of orbital blowout fracture with central retinal artery occlusion in LE. Central retinal artery occlusion is a rare complication occurring simultaneously with an orbital blowout fracture and is associated with a very poor prognosis.
