    AbstractAcute retinal necrosis (ARN) is a rare, progressive viral uveitis, with the majority of cases caused by herpesviruses. The diagnosis of ARN is often delayed, and most patients will have some degree of permanent visual loss. We report a case of ARN in a previously healthy 32-year-old patient.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
