We present a case of bilateral myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody optic neuritis (MOG-ON) with unilateral vitreous hemorrhage in a 6-year-old boy. Multidisciplinary team care, including extensive investigations and prolonged follow-up, excluded alternative causes of vitreous hemorrhage. Early suspicion and diagnosis of MOG-ON led to timely intravenous methylprednisolone treatment, with protracted oral steroid taper, resulting in complete resolution of optic nerve swelling, vitreous hemorrhage, and visual function.

- An 8-year-old girl with chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) experienced intermittent swelling around her left eye and developed left optic neuropathy due to the condition affecting her facial bone and orbit.
- The girl had been diagnosed with CRMO 5 years prior and showed improvement with adalimumab treatment.
- However, she suffered permanent vision loss due to delayed diagnosis and treatment, highlighting the importance of early recognition for preventing irreversible damage.
We present a 65-year-old female smoker who presented with acute bilateral blurred vision. Investigations led to an endobronchial ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration resulting in an early diagnosis of limited stage small cell lung cancer. Positive recoverin antibodies supported the diagnosis of cancer-associated retinopathy (CAR).
