Papilloedema associated with dural venous sinus thrombosis.

Papilloedema is a diagnostic term used exclusively to describe optic disc oedema associated with increased intracranial pressure. Septic cerebral venous sinus thrombosis has become an increasingly rare cause of papilloedema because of the widespread availability of antimicrobial agents; however, it is imperative for optometrists to maintain vigilance for this pathologic process. Presented is a case of a 77-year-old Caucasian male with a complaint of blurred vision and non-specific, diffuse headache.

Novel case of ocular neuromyotonia associated with thyroid-related orbitopathy and literature review.

Purpose: To present a novel case of pupillary involvement in ocular neuromyotonia (ONM), a rare ocular syndrome that causes intermittent diplopia because of an abnormal delay in extraocular muscle relaxation and to conduct a literature review.

Methods: A case report is presented to demonstrate clinical characteristics and treatment of ONM. In addition, a literature review is conducted by searching Medline and Embase databases.

Idiopathic orbital inflammatory syndrome without pain: a case report.

Background: Idiopathic orbital inflammatory syndrome (IOIS) is a collection of primary orbital inflammatory expressions manifested in a variety of clinical presentations. Because the process is idiopathic, it lacks association with neoplastic, infectious, or systemic immunologic and inflammatory diseases. Therefore, an extensive analysis is required to exclude secondary etiologies of orbital inflammation.

Adenocarcinoma metastasis causing discrete extraocular muscle enlargement.

Background: Discrete extraocular muscle (EOM) metastasis is rarely reported. Clinical signs and symptoms of EOM metastasis can often be indistinguishable from primary idiopathic orbital myositis, posing a significant clinical challenge.

Case Report: A case of a 61-year-old man with acute-onset unilateral periorbital pain and diplopia is presented.

Diabetic papillopathy and its relation to optic nerve ischemia.

Purpose: This presentation exhibits a case report and review of multiple reported cases of hyperemic optic disc swelling in patients with diabetes. After excluding all other known causes of optic nerve insult, this pathology has typically been labeled as diabetic papillopathy.

Case Report: We offer a case of a 65-year-old veteran with unilateral hyperemic optic disc swelling, presenting with minimal optic nerve dysfunction.
