Here we report a case of central @entity732 after chiropractic manipulation on the neck. A 49-year old @entity1 presented at the hospital because of sudden @entity227 in his right eye after chiropractic neck manipulation. He had received chiropractic manipulation of the neck by a chiropractor eight days prior. When he first visited us, his best corrected visual acuity in his right eye was hand motion. A full ophthalmic examination was performed. There was cherry-red spot in the macula in his right eye. We performed a @entity941 angiogram and cervical color Doppler. The arterio-venous transit time in the @entity941 angiogram was delayed, and we detected stenosis of the right internal carotid artery with @entity731 in the right common carotid artery. We prescribed ginko biloba extract (Tanamin). Three years after his first visit, the best corrected visual acuity of his right eye was 20 / 200.
