Abstract
We present a single case report of a 20-year-old female who died following a severe whiplash head and neck injury sustained during a roller-coaster incident. We present the pathology of her eyes, which we believe to be the first pathological illustration of whiplash maculopathy and retinopathy to be reported within the medical literature. This article presents the macroscopic and microscopic pathology identified in this case and discusses the possible causation of the findings.
