We report a case of hemi-retinal vein occlusion following laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in a healthy 46-year-old Caucasian male. A hemi-retinal vein occlusion following LASIK could be coincidental. However, young age, absence of risk factors and negative laboratory testing require consideration of a causal relationship.
