Non-accidental trauma (NAT) is a leading cause of childhood traumatic injury in the United States. Retinal findings in NAT are common and well described, including extensive retinal hemorrhages in multiple layers, retinoschisis, perimacular retinal folds, vitreous and optic nerve hemorrhage. Management keystones include a multidisciplinary approach to the patient’s multiple comorbidities, careful photographic and angiographic documentation of ophthalmic findings, amblyopia prevention and visual development, as well as interventions including photocoagulation and vitrectomy.
