Leukemic Retinopathy: A Diagnostic Clue for Initial Detection and Prognosis of Leukemia.

Leukemia is a systemic malignancy that can compromise various physiological functions, including vision. We report a case of a 37-year-old male presenting with worsening bilateral central vision loss, fatigue, shortness of breath, and ankle edema. Ophthalmic examination revealed extensive retinal hemorrhages, Roth spots, and subhyaloid hemorrhages, consistent with leukemic retinopathy.

Acute Posterior Multifocal Placoid Pigment Epitheliopathy With Associated Papillitis.

The purpose of this study was to report the rare presentation of bilateral acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE) and unilateral papillitis treated successfully with corticosteroid therapy. The methods used in this study include fundus photography and fluorescein angiography. A 40-year-old female presented to the emergency room with decreased vision, headache, and photophobia with fundus examination findings of bilateral creamy placoid lesions in the posterior pole and unilateral papillitis, macular edema, and disc hemorrhages.

A Rare Case of Vomiting-Induced Retrobulbar Hemorrhage.

Retrobulbar hemorrhage may result in sudden accumulation of blood in the retrobulbar space which can lead to an orbital compartment syndrome. This potentially blinding condition is characterized by a rapid increase in intra-orbital pressure. While most commonly associated with orbital trauma, it may rarely occur with Valsalva events in patients on anticoagulants.

Orbitocerebral Mucormycosis in a Patient With Central Nervous System Lymphoma.

A 61-year-old man with well-controlled diabetes mellitus type 2, cirrhosis from hepatitis C, alcohol abuse, and portal hypertension presented with painful vision loss and left orbital swelling. Imaging showed diffuse orbital, perineural, and pachymeningeal inflammation. He was initially diagnosed with neurosarcoidosis.
