Vitreous hemorrhage in children is caused by trauma or non-traumatic factors. Long-term vitreous hemorrhage not only affects children's vision, but also can lead secondary glaucoma, traumatic retinal detachment and other serious complications. Ocular trauma, some ocular and systemic diseases are the common etiology leading to vitreous hemorrhage in children. A small amount of vitreous hemorrhage can be treated by observation and conservative treatment. However, if the vitreous hemorrhage has no obvious absorption or serious complications appeared, it needs to be treated by surgery. The choice of treatment time and methods need to be further studied.
