Benign Raeder syndrome is characterized by a self-limiting unilateral continuous headache associated with ipsilateral ptosis, miosis, and frequently, facial hypohydrosis. Hemicrania continua is a chronic, strictly unilateral continuous headache associated with ipsilateral cranial autonomic symptoms. We report a 50-year-old man who presented with benign Raeder syndrome, which evolved into an indomethacin-responsive hemicranial headache that resembled hemicrania continua.

The absolute reliance on abnormal neuro-ophthalmologic findings as signposts for particular lesions of the neuraxis must be tempered by a working knowledge of false and nonlocalizing signs and symptoms. Transient monocular visual loss or complex visual hallucinations may lead to neuroanatomic ambiguity, and elevated intracranial pressure is not the most common cause of swollen optic disks in late life. Sixth nerve palsy associated with increased intracranial pressure is possibly the best-known false localizing sign, but other ocular motility disturbances (divergence paresis, convergence insufficiency, and skew deviation) also elude localization.

Raeder first described Horner's syndrome with ipsilateral head pain due to paratrigeminal organic disease, but most subsequent reports of this syndrome were idiopathic. Our recent case prompted a review of past reports of idiopathic Raeder's syndrome. Because in recent years the features of Raeder's syndrome have been recognized as common manifestations of carotid artery dissection, we divided the cases into those with and those without carotid imaging studies.
