Abstract:
A 3-year-old girl presented with sudden onset of bilateral vision loss on waking up from sleep. There had been no associated eye pain, eye redness, fever or history of trauma in the days leading up to the presentation. She had been diagnosed with Evans syndrome at the age of 18 months and started on a regular dose of oral prednisolone under regular follow-up at the paediatric clinic. Upon presentation, her visual acuity was light perception bilaterally, with relative afferent pupillary defect in the right eye and sluggish pupils bilaterally. Bilateral fundus examination showed normal macula an

Abstract:
Cortical blindness is defined as bilateral visual loss due to disruption of the visual pathways beyond the lateral geniculate body. Visual disturbance as a result of cortical lesion can manifest in different ways. Anton's syndrome is one of the manifestations of cortical blindness, which presents as denial of loss of vision associated with confabulation in the setting of obvious visual loss. This case illustrates the challenges of diagnosing cortical blindness in the emergency setting.

Abstract:
A 58-year-old Malay man with a history of ischemic heart disease, well-controlled diabetes mellitus, and hypertension presented with sudden loss of vision after he underwent angiogram (cardiac catheterization) with contrast. Post-angiogram, his visual acuity deteriorated gradually to no perception of light bilaterally within 1 h duration. Clinically, there was no new intraocular pathology and neurologic examination was normal. An urgent noncontract computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain showed the presence of contrast in the venous sinuses but no obvious acute intracranial hemorrhage. Bila

Abstract:
A 65-year-old man, a known case of advanced pancreatic cancer on cisplatin and gemcitabine-based chemotherapy, presented with sudden bilateral painless loss of vision with altered sensorium. Clinical examination showed a normal pupillary light reaction, normal anterior segment and normal fundus. MRI brain showed bilateral parieto-occipital infarct. This report highlights the incidence of cortical blindness due to thromboembolism at the cerebral level in pancreatic cancer. Cerebral ischaemic events occur at an advanced stage of pancreatic cancer already diagnosed at stroke onset and portend a p

Purpose: To report a case of transient cortical blindness following cervical transforaminal epidural injection.Case summary: A 58-year-old diabetic and hypertensive male was referred to the ophthalmology department with sudden-onset bilateral visual disturbances after cervical transforaminal epidural injection for neck pain. During the procedure, an intravascular contrast medium was injected into the left vertebral artery. Immediately after the injection, the patient complained of bilateral visual disturbances, mild headache, and dizziness. Twelve hours after the procedure, his visual acuity w

Abstract:
Introduction: Streptococcal meningoencephalitis (SME) is a rare, and frequently lethal, acute infection, and inflammation of the central nervous system parenchyma, with associated meningeal involvement. Bacterial meningoencephalitis is generally associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality, despite available antimicrobial and corticosteroid treatments. While Streptococcus pneumoniae is well recognised to cause bacterial meningitis, direct extension into the central nervous system parenchyma is rare.

Abstract:
Background: Blindness (anopia) is a functional loss of vision, which could be due either to ophthalmological or neurological conditions. Blindness may be congenital or acquired. The main causes of blindness in adults are cataracts, uncorrected ametropia (myopia, astigmatism), glaucoma, macular dystrophy, cortical ischemic strokes, etc. In less than 10% of the patients, the reason for cortical blindness is bilateral occipital strokes, one of them hemorrhagic. Case Description: In the current case report, we present a 75-year-old patient with complaints of headache and visual loss. The patient h
