  SCH’s initial evaluation and determination are clinical and based on appearance. […] If the SCH becomes persistent or recurrent, then a workup regarding bleeding disorders and other hypocoagulable states should be done. […] Generally, no treatment is indicated for SCH unless associated with a certain serious condition. […] Emergent ophthalmology consultation is warranted if SCH occurs via trauma and intraocular or additional retinal trauma is suspected. […] SCH offers a good visual prognosis after resolution. […] The recurrence rate for spontaneous SCH is about 10% without identifiable risk factors and higher if patients take anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy. […] There are no complications surrounding SCH, as most resolve around 2 weeks. […] If patients notice recurrence or persistence of SCH or bruising on other parts of the body, especially if taking anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy, their general practitioner or cardiologist may organize further tests.
