Sinonasal tumors arising from Schneiderian papillomas, most frequently associated with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), are rare and often present with non-specific symptoms, even in an advanced stage. Herein, we report the case of a 61-year-old male who presented with a four-month history of progressive binocular diplopia, blepharoptosis, and amblyopia, and upon the essential diagnostic work-up he was subsequently diagnosed with SCC arising from an SP. Surgical management was not warranted due to the extent of the disease, so induction chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was commenced, followed by definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT). The patient was still alive at 25 months after his first presentation, receiving supportive care. Our case highlights the importance of early recognition of neuro-ophthalmological disorders related to sinonasal carcinomas, as diagnostic delay may lead to both functional complications and higher morbidity.

Background: To investigate the effect of basic intermittent exotropia (IXT) on myopic shift in children during 12-month follow-up.
Methods: 165 children aged 4-15 years were recruited prospectively in this study and divided into 3 groups: Group A, consisted of 64 patients with basic IXT without surgery; Group B, consisted of 51 patients 1-month after IXT-corrected surgery; and Group C, consisted of 50 patients without any form of strabismus. All patients underwent assessments of spherical equivalent (SE), axial length (AL), exodeviation, and binocular function relating to accommodation and convergence.

Background: Amblyopia is a common cause of visual impairment in children. Compliance with traditional treatments for amblyopia is challenging due to negative psychosocial impacts. Recent shifts in amblyopia treatment have moved from suppressing the dominant eye to enhancing binocular visual function.

This report primarily describes a rare case of an elderly male patient who initially presented with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) in the left eye and was ultimately diagnosed with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) -associated vasculitis involving the eyes, gastrointestinal tract, and kidneys. However, due to irregular treatment, both eyes developed progressive ocular manifestations later. This article emphasizes the importance of actively screening for and treating underlying conditions in cases of CRAO.
