To present the case of a 34-year-old man with sudden bilateral decrease of visual acuity, followed by a complete and fast recovery.

The patient was treated at the debut of the symptomatology, thus having a favorable evolution during hospitalization, with the full recovery of his visual acuity, without complications.
