Superior Ophthalmic Vein Thrombosis with Complete Loss of Vision as a Complication of Autoimmune and Infective Conditions.

SOVT is a rare entity. There are no guidelines, just recommendations for disease management.

SOVT can lead to devastating complications which include permanent loss of vision and in some cases a fatal outcome.
