The popularization of bungee jumping is causing an increase in occurrences of lesions associated with its practice, including ocular lesions. The purpose of this study is to describe a case of acute decrease in vision and visual field defects following a bungee jump. The authors present a case of a 48-year-old woman, without history of systemic or ocular disorders, seen at an ophthalmologic emergency service with visual loss complaint following a bungee jump. On initial ophthalmologic evaluation, hemorrhages in the posterior pole of both eyes were found. Fluorescein angiography showed hypofluorescent areas, without other vascular alterations. The patient was evaluated after 14 weeks, the hemorrhages cleared up and there was atrophy of the pigmented epithelium of the retina in the posterior pole, but the patient remained with complaint of scotoma and visual field defects even 5 months after the initial event. The occurrence of body lesions, including ocular lesions, with risk of decrease in visual acuity should be informed to candidates for the practice of this sport, and the ophthalmologist would do well to provide information to the population about possible ocular disorders, in this sport and in daily life.
蹦极运动的普及导致与其相关的损伤事件增多，包括眼部损伤。本研究旨在描述一例蹦极后视力急性下降和视野缺损的病例。作者报告了一例48岁女性，无全身或眼部疾病史，在眼科急诊就诊，主诉蹦极后视力丧失。初次眼科检查时，发现双眼后极部出血。荧光素血管造影显示低荧光区，无其他血管改变。14周后对患者进行评估，出血已清除，后极部视网膜色素上皮萎缩，但患者在初次事件发生5个月后仍主诉有暗点和视野缺损。应告知这项运动的参与者有关身体损伤（包括眼部损伤）的发生情况以及视力下降的风险，眼科医生应向公众提供有关此项运动及日常生活中可能出现的眼部疾病的信息。
