A 58-year-old man, a known diabetic and hypertensive for 5 years was presented to us with a drop in reading vision in both eyes of 2 months duration. His best-corrected visual acuity was 6/24, N36 in both eyes. Fundus findings revealed moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy with bilateral diffuse macular oedema. When conventional therapy with intravitreal ranibizumab did not alter the clinical picture, haematological tests revealed severe anaemia with pancytopenia, which prompted further investigations, including a bone marrow biopsy.
