Purpose: To report a case of asymmetric melanoma-associated retinopathy (MAR) associated with metastatic melanoma which was thought to be in remission for 6 years. Identification of MAR led to the discovery of recurrent malignancy.
Method: A man in his 60s presented with monocular visual disturbances with a large relative afferent pupillary defect, rapidly progressing visual field defect and otherwise normal eye examination.
Introduction: Optic nerve sheath meningiomas and intracavernous arachnoid cysts are both fairly rare conditions, and to the best of our knowledge, have not been previously reported to co-occur in the same patient. Both can cause diplopia, but only ONSMs have been documented to demonstrate progressive worsening of ocular motility.
Case Report: A 67-year-old woman with blur and diplopia demonstrated a right optic neuropathy and limited ductions bilaterally.
