A 43-year-old woman presented with a right-sided visual field defect in the right eye. The visual acuity was normal and there was a right relative afferent pupillary defect. Formal visual field testing revealed a junctional scotoma of Traquair. The fundus examination showed optic atrophy in the right eye and optical coherence tomography demonstrated unilateral band atrophy. Neuroimaging revealed a sellar and suprasellar cystic pituitary adenoma for which she underwent a transsphenoidal drainage. We demonstrate the clinical and radiographic features of the junctional scotoma of Traquair and describe the differentiating features vs the junctional scotoma.

Purpose: Cone-rod dystrophies (CORD) are inherited retinal dystrophies characterized by primary cone degeneration with secondary rod involvement. We report two patients from the same family with a dominant variant in the guanylate cyclase 2D () gene with different phenotypes in the electroretinogram (ERG).
Observations: A 21-year-old lady (Patient 1) was referred due to experiencing blurry vision and color vision impairment.

Neuro-ophthalmic evaluation is a crucial component of the diagnostic and prognostic assessment of pituitary disease and compressive chiasmopathy, and can inform the timing of vision-restoring tumour resection surgery. The most common disease affecting the pituitary with neuro-ophthalmic implications are pituitary adenomas. Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations include decreased vision, abnormal colour vision and impaired visual field or diplopia.

A 27-year-old woman with a known suprasellar dermoid cyst and stable idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) presented with new monocular vision change and new-onset headaches. Formal visual field testing accurately identified progressive chiasmal compression due to her suprasellar dermoid cyst before radiographic change was appreciable on magnetic resonance imaging. Accurate interpretation of her visual field findings avoided the common pitfall of attributing new visual symptoms to her IIH diagnosis.
