Photoreceptor attenuation in acute zonal occult outer retinopathy.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to report a case of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy and to describe a novel method of imaging photoreceptor damage using Cirrus spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT; Cirrus, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) en face visualization. Our examination also included color fundus photographs, Goldmann visual field, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography, fundus autofluo-rescence, and Ganzfeld electroretinography.

Methods: This is a case report of a single patient.

Spontaneous resolution of aneurysmal third nerve palsy.

Palsy of the third cranial nerve developed in a 33-year-old woman in her third trimester of pregnancy as a result of compression by a posterior communicating artery aneurysm. Prepartum complications forced postponement of surgical treatment. The palsy spontaneously resolved over 3 weeks after delivery by cesarean section.
