Preeclampsia is a multisystemic hypertensive disorder that occurs after 20 weeks of gestation in 5%-15% of pregnant women and is the cause of complications that can affect important organs and even cause death during gestation or in the postpartum period. It includes severe preeclampsia, eclampsia and HELLP (hemolysis, elevation of liver enzymes, low platelets) syndrome. We report three cases of retinal detachment that occurred in two patients with severe preeclampsia and one with eclampsia, all with hemorrhage and visual alteration in the postpartum period that required pharmacological treatment. Retinal detachment is a symptom associated with preeclampsia and eclampsia that can be investigated by ocular fundoscopy to determine whether conservative or pharmacological treatment is feasible.
